A one-man (Arnold Skemer) review ''zine in small print that is full of provocative impressions of cutting edge fiction, poetry, and criticism, such as: books of essays on Djuna Barnes, Gertrude Stein and Monique Wittig, the latter a kind of lesbian Rabelais; two studies (from 1976, which shows how serious Skemer is) of language; a book on the future of poetry from Australia; some critical essays by Richard Kostelanetz, a study of laughter; a Canadian anthology of miniature literary works, and a surrealistic novel written in 1928, Michael Leiris's Aurora. Whew.--Bob Grumman
