Book Reviews of Edie Factory Girl
Book Review: This is a comment from Nat Finkelstein.
Summary: 3 Stars
I think that it is not at all coincidental that these bitter, derogatory and possibly libelous comments
all come from the same area in California? Be that as it may, the attacks upon me have nothing to do with reviewing the book itself.
A) I did not write the text. The text was written by David Dalton and (with her permission) excerpts from Jean Stein and George Plimpton.
B) Is a reviewer trying to claim that the photographs are not of Edie but oh maybe
Misha or a geneticaly engineered clone? No little man, they are the real Edie.
C) There are over 100 illustrations, many of which are never before published....although some thieves do violate my copyrights and some rip off my website.
Finally, the comment that I am a "bitter old man " is not only wrong but potentially slanderous. The truth is I am a happy man - I have a wife who loves me, money in the bank, two great dogs, rent paid and food on the table.....what more do I need ? Oh yes, I get laid. Can you say the same little ghosts?
P.S. I don't care what you say.......but spell my name right.
Book Review: a tragic attempt
Summary: 1 Stars
I am shocked that more Edie fans are not speaking out about this book. not
only is poorly designed, badly printed and full of photos that any edie
lover would have seen before, but it is full of such a deep undercurrent of
disrespect and hatred of edie in the writing you wonder why the authors
bothered to write it.
even if you're really broke this isn't the edie book for you. low
rent it is, but you'd be better off with jean stein's/plimpton's edie:
american girl
Book Review: mtvish collection of edie
Summary: 2 Stars
i'm a big edie fan but am disappointed with the content. there are anecdotal inserts of her life by various persons in her crowd thus don't buy unless you are more into the images. even the images are not that many and i don't like how it is printed against these flourescent colors. not my favorite edie book.
