Review title: Falls well short of films
Product review: To anyone planning to buy this book based on the strength of Korine's film work: buyer beware. This debut "novel" is no such thing, as it has no characters, setting, or linear narrative. This in itself is not necessarily a bad thing, but Korine replaces them with a series of random lists, scrawlings, and formulaically obscene snippets. One could praise this failure if it failed because it was over reaching itself, but throughout one gets the impression that Korine was never really shooting for anything at all. The book attempts to look thrown together, but unfortunately the writing appears to be so also. My copy now resides in the bathroom, both because it's short attention span driven text is suited well to this enviornment, and it helps to get people out of there quickly. Thoroughly disapointing.
