Into the Blue Again

Have I mentioned Rivka Galchen’s excellent novel Atmospheric Disturbances yet?  More times than I can efficiently link to it appears.

I bring it up yet again, because I had to draw your attention to this recent review at Salon.  It’s excellent, but I’m totally jealous that I didn’t come up with the review’s headline myself.  The Talking Heads song referenced is such a perfect accompaniment to the book, that I feel compelled to share it here:

Maybe David Byrne could play the role of Dr. Leo Liebenstein in the film adaptation of the novel.  Get me Spielberg on the horn.

(Here are links to just two previous mentions: my interview with the author and my review of the novel.
