A BOOK BY JAYNE LOADER

BETWEEN PICTURES by Jayne Loader (hardcover, 275 pages, 
published by Grove Press, 1987).

From the director of the cult classic THE ATOMIC CAFE, this novel
features a passionate, doomed relationship between a pretty young 
filmmaker from Texas and a brilliant, married scientist, "a young Robert
Oppenheimer, only cuter, with smaller ears."  After the relationship
ends badly, as it must, the narrator, Katherine Anne Porter O'Shea, 
proceeds to engage in behavior so risky that BETWEEN PICTURES was 
deemed "irresponsible and immoral" by the editors of Playboy 
magazine, who know whereof they speak.  Only the names of the guilty
were changed at the behest of the Grove Press lawyers, aghast at the
author's relentless--albeit self-destructive--honesty.  

``Like attending a wild, drunken, glamorous party--hilarious, 
frantic, exhilarating,'' raved the New York Times.  ``A depiction 
of Hollywood written with a witty, self-deprecating brio.''  

``A little like GIDGET GOES TO HELL,'' according to the Village 
Voice.  ``Jayne Loader is original on subjects everyone else 
has been boring on for years.  Grimly funny.''

``A literary Madonna, Jayne Loader is knockdown funny and smart,'' 
wrote Rhoda Lerman.  ``Hot, sexy, and a fabulous new voice 
in fiction.''

``Fast, funky, feisty, and fun, this book leaks personality.''
               --Barbara Raskin, author of HOT FLASHES

``This delightful, wicked book has been written with wit and 
malice by a lady who has lived it all and clearly knows whereof 
she speaks.''  
               --Paul Bartel, director of EATING RAOUL

``Anna Kate O'Shea is a Holly Golightly for a new age.''
               --Publishers Weekly

``A minor miracle, a nightmare with punch lines.''        
               --Timothy Leary
