I Dream of Microwaves

Rating:
Summary: Enjoyable
Review: In the same tradition as "My Fractured Life", "I Dream of Microwaves" is a fun stomping of Hollywood's B-list subculture. If you enjoyed "My Fractured Life" and "Running With Scissors" you should enjoy this.

Review: The thing that bothered me about I DREAM OF MICROWAVES is the same thing that I liked about it. You just can't get past the point-by-point way it follows the same story as MY FRACTURED LIFE. On the one hand this is what I enjoyed about it because it does cover the same territory so it was familiar to something I already enjoy. However it was also bothersome in some ways because I wanted something more than the main character being turned into a middle easterner and renamed after a basketball player. It is a nicely written book. I did enjoy it. However I did not enjoy it as much as MY FRACTURED LIFE because it didn't seem to add as much to the story as I would have liked.

Summary: Good Book
Review: This is a good book that is very similar to the book My Fractured Life about the world of B-movie actors and television wannabes. It's pretty funny. I enjoyed it.

Summary: Very Good, Similar to "MY FRACTURED LIFE"
Review: Very similar in structure to Rikki Lee Travolta's "MY FRACTURED LIFE." This is a series of interconnected stories following the exploits of a fictional would-be B-movie actor as he sets off to become a "real person" in the "real world" only to find the world outside of Hollywood far more surreal than one might expect. Like "MY FRACTURED LIFE" each chapter can stand alone as a short story, but are expertly intermixed to tell one all encompassing tale. Although it lacks the dynamics and power of Travolta's fact-based account of the underbelly of Hollywood, fans of "FRACTURED LIFE" should be well entertained by Imad Rahman's "I DREAM OF MICROWAVES." A tandem, side by side read is probably the best bet for maximum enjoyment.
