4.0 out of 5 stars
Barthelme helped wire our multimedia.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Guilty Pleasures (Paperback)
Too bad "Guilty Pleasures" is outta print. No one could take our multimedia to its logical (well, illogical...) extreme like Barthelme. The parodies abound: "The Teaching of Don B." is an incisive if now outdated parody of the Carlos Castaneda novels. My favorite is "The Case of Bitsy S." A brief but utterly wicked parody of so-called scientific research articles!: if only real research papers were this short! "Snap! Snap!" is simply a litany of quotes from magazines, interspersed with some kind of motivational tirade. Very strange! Shows like Ally McBeal & Malcolm in the Middle exhibit the influence of Barthelme--interior monologue & fantasy; whether this is direct or not, I sure don't know. Apparently, some of this stuff has been published in other volumes, but you'd have to check the copyright permissions to see whether they're from "Guilty Pleasures."
