Summary: How the Sky Fell
Comment: which is the title of another brilliant book of Ms. Duhamel's. There, as here, she skewers our preconceived notions about what is laughably acceptable as well as what we ridiculously reject in our present consumerist culture. We're still puritanical until it sells. Duhamel and Seaton make one hell of a team, once again (see Exquisite Politics). Oyl is a fabulous little book, and I can tell from these muscular poems these girls eat their spinach.

Summary: TAKE THAT, POPEYE!
Comment: Taking up where EXQUISITE POLITICS left off, Duhamel and Seaton have done it again--poetically exploring the concepts of butch and femme! And what better binaries than Popeye and Olive Oyl? Blending Popeye speak (I yam what I yam...), Oulipo techniques, sestinas and pantoums, Duhamel and Seaton have written OYL, a hilarious and touching book. They interview Olive Oyl, then reinvent cartoon plots with postfeminist twists that will keep you guessing. These "girls" know how to have fun!
