 | | Hooking Up(1st Edition) by Tom Wolfe Paperback, 304 Pages, Published 2001 by Picador Paper ISBN-13: 978-0-312-42023-9, ISBN: 0-312-42023-4 "Tom Wolfe's Hooking Up is an oleo of reportage, fiction, and acrimonious name calling. This last, of course, makes for the best reading. In "My Three Stooges", Wolfe reviles the three big men of American letters--Updike, Mailer and Irving--who cast aspersions on his second novel. Apparently, "the allergens for jealousy were present. Both Updike and Mailer had books out at the same time as A Man in Full, and theirs had sunk without a bub ..." |

Für den Musterknabe des Neuen Journalismus ist Minimalismus eine Pleite, geschweige denn eine Folge von Mutlosigkeit. Die wahre Aufgabe des amerikanischen Schriftstellers ist es, fette Romane über gesellschaftliche Beobachtungen zu produzieren -- v ..." |

In 1987, when The Bonfire of the Vanities arrived, the literati called Wolfe an "aging enfant terrible." He wasn't aging; he was growing up. Bonfire's pyrotechnic satire of 1980s New York wasn't just Wolfe ..." |

For New Journalism's poster boy, minimalism is a wash, not to mention a failure of nerve. The real mission of the American writer is to produce fat novels of social observation--the sort of thing Balzac would be dishing up if he had made it into the Viagra era. Wolfe's ma ..." |
