Ellroy is a fascinating spectacle. The one caveat, I think,
is the knowledge (due no doubt to this age we live in, with
its camera around each corner) that his
"spectacularity" is studied (he seems to have a
"script" of sorts), & is therefore of a different order
than that which is spontaneous. If, of course, that
distinction is a common one. Best, Rob
