Over the Rainbow? Hardly, by Chandler Brossard
€10.00
No tax
pocket book, 336 pages
A collection of Brossard's last works, these are bizarre pieces that serve as declarations of the fluid final aesthetic of a US writer who wrote from the time of Hemingway's plummeting, into the barren lands of Gaddis' genius, around Kerouac, deep beneath the underground of peak Pynchon, managing to find a way to write some of the best works of fiction in the United States and remain virtually unknown. The book includes a convincing appreciation as an introduction written by Steven Moore, who apparently was one of few critics who understood Brossard, though in my view seems not to have fully credited the politically subversive mandate Brossard hung around his neck, for his hijinks and super-liberty always dance about political insights that rival those of Hunter Thompson.
