last night i finished Henry Bean's beautifully ugly 1982 novel of in the early , THE NENOQUICH--his first(!) and only. ugly even in summary: self-loathing writer/boomer cultivates a ruinous affair for vile-young-literary-bastard reasons, rendered in the most precise & vivid language.

greil marcus calls it the best depiction of that time/place ('...the collapse, not the apotheosis, of collective adventure'). the final act is viscerally upsetting, unexpected.

incredible work.
