Kevin Costner in \u003ci\u003eWaterworld\u003c\/i\u003e: hot or not?\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSmoke Show\u003c\/i\u003e is a novel that will astound readers with its audacious, stripped-down narrative set in the mid-nineties about assorted f**k-ups, diehards, and lost souls, seen through a hazy filter of bus fumes and cigarette smoke. Told in \"real time,\" \u003ci\u003eSmoke Show\u003c\/i\u003e is raw, candid, amorphous; told through jargon and petty dialogue commonly heard in the street or on public transit, \u003ci\u003eSmoke Show\u003c\/i\u003e is a novel told in conversation. Itis a dissonant, close-to-the bone explosion of everything and nothing at the same time, like watching a film whose sound does not match the images.
