MUTTERING (November 8, 2000)
“Munch,” I muttered the first time I saw Billy Childish’s paintings. “Munch,” muttered Lauren the first time she saw Billy’s paintings. “That’s what I said the first time I saw Billy’s paintings,” I muttered to her. Why all the muttering, though? Is it that we like Billy Childish too much or Edvard Munch too little?
