That first link to the Whalen is giving me a dose of WOW! I just read the Dale Smith opener and look forward to reading all of it!
And the Watten essay on O'Hara was a great read. Let the LANGUAGE poets and The New York School have a new summer of Love? I'm sure to get hate mail for that, HEHE, but seriously, LET IT BE BEAUTIFUL!

Oceans Beyond Monotonous Space
Well worth your money. And John Solt, coincidentally, sent me this information today. Until now, there was no way to purchase a copy online.

Alot of these Bolinas books are still floating around and exude a good vibe, and translated Japanese early-modernism has always been
a delicacy in this home.

But it is tricky for a store like that to survive -- the community is pretty high-powered intellectually, with diverse tastes, and they just can't compete with amazon's prices and selection. It is too bad they couldn't figure out a way to leverage the community, through readings and events, to support the store.
'I mention to Robbe-Grillet that I recently interviewed Alain Resnais, director of the great 1961 film Last Year at Marienbad, for which Robbe-Grillet wrote the famously baffling scenario.
I tell him a joke about the film that Resnais told me. An assassin is arrested by the police for a murder. They know he is guilty. "But I have an alibi," he protests. "I was at the movies when the crime took place." The detective asks, "What did you see?" "Last Year in Marienbad." "Tell me the story," says the detective. The killer can't. Naturally, he is condemned. Robbe-Grillet listens to the anecdote grimly.'
