Unexpected Eloquence: The Art in American Folk Art

Howard Rose. Raymond Saroff Publisher, $20 (128pp) ISBN 978-1-878352-02-6

Long out of print, this ``highly original'' novel focuses on Alan Lavin, who grows up in a coven of witches in a small Midwestern town. PW concluded that the novel is ``wild, unpredictable, spooky,'' with an obscure story line and language that is strange and difficult to follow. (May)
