Trailer Girl and Other Stories Book

This book was definitely different and odd but overall I liked it. I will admit that I was expecting al the stories to be about the same very short length and was quite surprised to find the first story - Trailer Girl - to be so long. I wound up becoming fairly involved with that story, and then the others I wasn't so sure of. I'll probably go back and look through some of them again though. I found this book by running a search for female authors - I do that regularly - and then I plugged in some of the names I saw to Amazon. I spotted the name William S. Burroughs in a review that some magazine or other had written in regards to this book and could hardly believe my luck - not many authors are compared to him - so I clicked order instantly. Having finished the book now....well....Honestly I don't know why this author was compared to Burroughs , so yes I was not so much disappointed but confused in that sense , yet I still walked away from this book thinking it was good. I like stories like this where it is just life gliding by like a smooth summer. Terese Svoboda is also a poet and you could tell. They oughta said it was like Ginsberg.... Regardless: It is true that The style in this book is different - in fact very different, in some way it seemed purposely slow or something - but I appreciated this element. It was weird that the writer is from NYC cause the book was so slow I thought for sure she was a country lady. Oh well. Anyways I figure they said it was like WSB cause she writes in a style they consider out of place and unusual just like they consider everything good unusual... Again It's like poetry prose.... Ginsberg... I will say that I am eager to try this author again. She seems to have a good head on her shoulders.
