Fake Liar Cheat

by Tod Goldberg

(this book was literally like watching a movie in my head. It is amazing and a quick little read. Makes for a great rainy Sunday afternoon)

I loved this book, so much so that I read in about one day. I couldn’t rip myself away from it. It was so real. I locked my bedroom door, lay on my bed for hours and wouldn’t let anyone stop me. It’s the kind of book that when you reach the end of it…you wish that it wasn’t over. And I do remember very clearly that I did read it on a Sunday

This morning I got this EMAILLLLLL….

Hi --

Thanks for the props! Any time I can get mentioned on the same page as The 'Mats (Skyway is my favorite...followed directly by We'll Inherit the Earth) and Dramarama (Scenario is my all time all time all time fave...unless Baby Rhino's Eye from Box Office Bomb is...) I'm pretty damn happy. Shoot, I'm pretty happy to be mentioned with Lloyd Cole, so much so that I went from your site to music site and downloaded on of his old albums so I could hear "perfect skin".

Thanks for putting me on your list...watch out for Living Dead Girl, my new novel, in May 2002.

Best,

Tod Goldberg

PoeticaL

Foregoing lyrics on this entry to show respect….

There are places that I go to when we are not together. I am still very much me there. I am still young and alive and unambitious.

There is love here, I think.

I name our unborn children and debate their futures.

"Maybe when this is all over, " Claire says, "I'll become a relationship counselor."

"That would be foolish," I say. She knows this. I know this. It is part of the game.

What we are going through is nothing if not normal. Relationships marred by strife work, says one of my friends, because even boxers hug after fighting. Opposition, he adds, creates passion.

"We are like dark and light then," I say.
