Brick

A monstrous work of love. Rock Gods and sweet angels cavort and scream together. I play the heavy. Not that I am. But I love most folks too much to let them be the bad guy.Influences abound, from Burroughs and Joyce and Homer (check the battle scene), to Bruce Springsteen, Watchmen, Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Lester Bangs. If you thought Hunter S. Thompson was too conservative, if you feel shortchanged if there aren't enough cusswords in a book, if you think Henry Miller should have blasted the stereo more. Then buy two copies. Features a battle royale of Led Zeppelin vs. Iggy Stooge and KISS. Rock Criticism and Beat Literature at its finest!
