Cultural Writing. In this fascinating first collection of prose, New York based writer and critic Raphael Rubinstein holds cinema, French geography, letters, paintings, newspaper clippings, music, and other cultural evidence up to the light, letting each serve as a prism to reflect his own memories and musings on an active, art-inflected life. These indeterminate, often unassuming mini-adventures...contain a magical substance that will set the reader's brain afire! -- Walter Abish. Jean-Luc Godard and Jean Eustache receive special attention in this compelling montage. Rubinstein, a senior editor at Art in America, is also the author of THE BASEMENT AT THE CAFÉ RILKE, available from SPD.
