5.0 out of 5 stars
The Book behind the Burning Bush, November 21, 2003
This review is from: A Rage of Intelligence (Hardcover)
This is a thoughtful and wryly funny little book, with a lot of breadth in terms of its perspective, flying easily from baseball through secret-agentry into the bowels of the Roman Catholic Church with ease and elan. To me, it's very evocative of 60's Richard Brautigan, without the hippy-dippy baggage. Revenge of the Lawn came strongly to mind when I first picked this title up. If I could ask anything more of the author, I would tell him to try something like Trout Fishing In America next, because some of his backgrounds make me believe he might have a knack for a little prose with his poetry. One way or the other, I expect we'll be seeing more of Paul Bussan.
