Summary: Louisa May Alcott He's Not!
Comment: Imagine Armistead Maupin tied up in latex and injected with sodium pentathol and you're halfway to the spirit of "Little Men." Kevin Killian is one of San Francisco's best experimental writers, and in these 11 short shorts he slips a magnet under nearly every moral compass with a chatty, diamond-sharp prose that reminded me somehow of Raymond Chandler--pulpy on the surface but with murderous depths below. "Chain of Fools" is one of the most bizarre and oddly moving accounts of growing up Catholic you'll ever read, while "Santa" and "Who Is Kevin Killian?" cover some dark psychological territory with the unblinking art of a Baudelaire (but a Baudelaire with cable and a thirst for Tab). If you like Kathy Acker or Dennis Cooper--or hey, even Louisa May Alcott--then Killian's your man. This book deserves to be more widely read and reviewed, so come on out all you K.K. fans and second this emotion!
