Synopsis
Cinema is oneof the recurring themes in Rapheal Rubinstein's first collection of prose. Legendary French director Jean-Luc Godard and Jean Eustache are the subjects of diaristic sequences; another storoy delves into the suspicious career of an elusive leftist film makes, A a Cameo ponders why a wealthy Itallian terrorist once posed for a photo with Alfred Hitchcock. Touching down in New York, Milan, Mexico City and the Balearic Islands, these lucid narratives explore private and public realms. The book culminates with a montagelike inventory of diverse objects, seemingly chosen at random, through which the author examines hisown life and family history.

About the Author
In addition to his influential art criticism, Rubinstein has recently published literary work in the American Poetry Review, Grand Street and The Oulipo Compendium. In 1996, Hard Press brought out Rubinstein's collection of poems The Basement of the Cafe Rilke, which Harry Mathews called "lucid, compelling and endowed with astonishing authority."
