1.0 out of 5 stars Kienholz, August 12, 2009

By	Dr. D. Waller "Diane" (UK Brighton) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: On a Scale that Competes with the World: The Art of Edward and Nancy Reddin Kienholz (Paperback)

Sadly I did not receive this book due to a mistake by the supplier. I am still looking for it. I received Culture/Contexture - Explorations in Anthropology and Literary Studies which although totally different is interesting. I have been advised to keep it. If anyone knows the whereabouts of this Kienholz book I would be grateful to know. Regards Diane Waller
