The December issue on entertainment
reflects the general lack of exposure given to
books, films and music made by women.
You will do your readers a service if you
seek out and review the work of women.

What planet is your movie reviewer Bill
Barol from? His review of “2010” claims
that Hal’s farewell song was “Bicycle Built
for Two" when I thought all intelligent life
in the universe knew it was “Daisy.”

J It's the same song. The title is “Daisy
Bell”\ the lyric goes: “Daisy, Daisy, Give me
your answer, do/I'm half crazy/All for the
love of you/It won V he a stylish marriage/I
can't afford a carriage/But you 'll look sweet
on theseat/Of a bicycle built for two. ”
“Dune” was a reprehensible excuse for a
movie, rife with gore, sadism and violence.
Nothing is more repugnant than the notion
that violence is potentially redemptive of of
necessary to a movie.

Thank you for your article on Martin
Short. In comedy, timing is everything, and
Short's time has come.

Violent Novels
Your publication of Lee Goldberg’s arti
cle celebrating his success at writing violent
novels was ill considered, and his “amus
ing" anecdote about the horror of a female
student who read his “pivotal rape scene”
was offensive. Rape is not funny.

While Mr. Goldberg waits to write a
“novel about relationships and feelings,” a
woman is sexually assaulted every few min
utes. Is there really “plenty of time”?

Goldberg appears to be ill. What a sad
