> Just this past weekend I found a copy of Purdy's "Eustace Chisholm
and the Works" with the Paul Cadmus painting "Playground" on the cover . . . Anyway, what a great book.

Indeed it is (but such can be said of all his novels. Narrow Rooms is a particular treat).

For anyone in the NYC area, Mr. Purdy is listed in the Brooklyn phone directory. He has lived in Brooklyn Heights for decades, an ignored queer genius passed over by the hordes who ruch to embrace the homophobic Bellow and Roth.

Is it any wonder that there is no Left?
