5.0 out of 5 stars Best satire in a looooong time, 16 Jun 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Right Here, Right Now (Hardcover)

Usually, when young writers try to get satirical, they get too broad and dumb. Ellis, on the other hand, has a deft touch. You laugh out loud sometimes, but mostly you laugh inside. His understated use of language is a treat. And can I just say that I really enjoy a good, fresh sex scene, and Ellis has NO problem delivering the goods in that department. It's a breezy read, but you feel like it was time well-spent when you're finished.

4.0 out of 5 stars Absurd, clever, and fun to read, 13 Jun 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Right Here, Right Now (Hardcover)

I really liked Trey Ellis' clever, funny third book. His talent has responded well to the wider platform here and demonstrates a maturing vision. I anticipate enjoying Mr. Ellis skewer other American idiosyncracies with his absurdist wit, as he clearly enjoys that territory as demonstrated in RH,RN. It's also refreshing to see a writer so clearly have fun with form in his work, and it makes for an engaging read. I'm anxious to see what or whom this emerging talent will poke some fun at next.

5.0 out of 5 stars Right Here, Right Now, Right On!, 11 Jun 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Right Here, Right Now (Hardcover)

Ellis does a marvelous job here of completing the thematic lattice he started with his first two works. While Platitudes has the exuberant if uneven gait of the young thoroughbred, RHRN marks the confident gallop of a literary stallion. He may be furlongs from the finish, perhaps, but Ellis has accomplished, in my opinion, a rare novelistic triple crown.
