You really wan't to get with G.L?

Gordon Lish has been called many things. Editor,teacher,perpetrator. His friend Don Delillo states "Gordon Lish, famous for all the wrong reasons, has written some of the most fascinating American fiction of the last ten years". This book "My Romance" happened. That is it was an oral assault. Gordon likes this method of literary acrobatics. It made me sweat, this book by G.L. It's the way he plays it. He just keeps on going until...he's...he's delivered...and then he delivers some more...more Gordon more!
