Book excerpt: Conceptually unique, hilarious, and frightening, referred to as pornography in The New York Times Book Review's original review and as a work of genius in Newsweek's, a: a novel is the perfect literary manifestation of Andy Warhol's sensibility. In the late sixties Warhol set out to turn a trade book into a piece of pop art, and the result was a: a novel -- a day in the life of the Factory crew. Created from tape-recorded conversations between Warhol and his entourage, a: a novel begins with the fabulous Ondine popping several amphetamines and then follows its characters as they converse with inspired speed-driven wit, and cut swaths through the clubs, coffeeshops, hospitals, and whorehouses of 1960s Manhattan.
