Summary: Get inside a writer's head and heart
Comment: Leonard Michaels' diary is, as they say, a page-turner. He seductively engages the reader in his life and, collaterally, in the lives of his many friends and lovers. As I was reading, I felt like the two of us were having coffee during layover in an airport bar in Minneapolis or Manila, or that we'd been snowbound at a truckstop on Highway 90 out of Bozeman and over boilermakers he was confessing, explaining, justifying his life to me by relating particular events and dissecting the emotions and thoughts leading to and surrounding those events.
I'll confess that I was in Leonard Michaels' writing class, but it was so many years ago that all I can recall about him is this: He was kind and he was cool. The book shows us that, too. Read it.
Rating: 4
Summary: Intensive times for a writer; bad times for me
Comment: I went to see Professor Michaels in his office in 1983; something happened which I would rather not remember.
That aside, I liked his descriptions of his Berkeley days, and how tedious it was to write the screenplay adaptation of his novel, The Men's Club. What a disappointment that movie was to everyone here in Berkeley.
