In Lunar Follies (Coffee House), one of his genre-defying extravaganzas, Gilbert Sorrentino describes outlandish art shows, all of them taking place in galleries named for mountain ranges and craters of the moon. While discussing the poetry and pretension of art and art talk, the sensibility of Sorrentino, the master satirist, is revealed.
