Not P but Any Publicity for Lit is Good Publicity

[Mark Kohut]

Yeah, I know, liking advertising is like liking capitalism, even before the
hope that it is "late" ; it might get me called an Empire lover since
Empires relish propaganda BUT

I am afraid I do like this.......quite clever, smartly executed; I think
using Kerouac's scroll is NOT KITSCHY (come at me) but in the spirit of his
prose which is why he scrolled it as he did, right, and very Male novel,
very Men's Fashion without any fashion but the changing fashion of
times.....

Thanks, Allan.
