The Body Artist media bandwagon continues to build momentum. Listing for a piece in the Village Voice.
(Nov 3, 2000)

The Body Artist media bandwagon has started rolling. First onboard is Speak magazine, with the piece "Smells like Don DeLillo" by John Lardas in Fall 2000 issue #20. Some memorable lines: "I a humble apprentice. I have absorbed an digested Don DeLillo whole. I am the fungus that lurks invisibly between his toes." Though he doesn't come out and say it, I suspect Mr. Lardas has been a visitor here more than once...

Also noted the DeLillo blurb on the latest novel by Joy Williams, The Quick and the Dead. "Joy Williams has produced a hard, sharp, comic novel about the off-kilter genius of adolescence - a work of marverick insight and rash and beautiful bursts of language."
