Haut or not
Haut or Not: Alexis Orgera
Lewis Lapham, of Harper’s fame, started a new quarterly focusing in depth on ‘timeless’ humanist qualms such as war, love, nature, etc., and I’m happy to see this on her shelf. The thinness of that Moby Dick spine looks like some abridged version, but I’m hoping knot (get it? fuck). Joyce and Beckett sit well next to each other like Exile and Absence out for a date. I can only imagine the library late fees out on Paradise Lost — the Fall of man at 20 cents a day. Alexis is onto something with all this irrevocable mor(t)al stuff. (And who needs The Iowa Review when I got a review of Iowa right here: corn blows.) If you think I’m grasping for material here, I’ll just repeat what I said to Marco Polo, ‘get lost.’
Rating: Haut.

when there’s only an issue or two of a lit mag on someone’s shelf i always start wondering what is in that issue that made the person pick it up and subsequently keep it.

I’m just going to guess people’s ages from their shelves, like that dude at the fair who guesses your weight by looking at you but different. This woman is not yet legal drinking age- say 20.
Reb- 36
David Hodges- 34
i think you posted this shelf cause you’re a chicken hawk motherfucker

peter is 28.
I just googled Ms. Orgera and she wins. She is not 20. She looks it though, in a photo found from googling her. Also, I think it is safe to say Ms. Orgera has many other shelves in her house.

Boring.
Boring.
One good, one bad. I was wrong with Alegra. But man, I am so happy I guessed you right! Woohoo! That means you don’t win the teddy bear, though, Reb.
I want to hear from Mr. Hodges.
Alexis, sorry, not Alegra-I am multi-tasking right now. Forgive me.

I also want to clarify to the wonderful Jimmy who invented this great series that in regards to the barely legal love and my riffing on how youthful the shelf appeared that chicken hawk- a term I use to describe myself- is used by me (and by others it has a more specific meaning, but who cares what they think) to describe an older person who preys on younger person, sexually. That’s me! And you Mr. Jimmy! The motherfucker was just “emhpasis” Like, yeah, motherfuckas, we be hawking on them chickens!
The thing here is, you decided to review the teenage half of my bedside table. The other half is full of adult, grown up literature, as opposed to that juvenile classics nonsense. You know, the kind chicken hawks read when they’re not out hawking chickens.
Plus, there was good poetry on that other half.
I’m 31, by the way.
