Narration To Books Lips of a Mastodon

(BACK COVER)

Why does Ted Bernal Guevara keep putting out these James Dean conceptual novels? In plain truth, Guevara says, “He’s like a kid (James Dean) I went to class with, rode the bus with and slid down an awesome snow-packed hill with.” And after high school, he goes on to Hollywood fame and immortality while Guevara from his modest bookish world is left to wonder about the iconic image, giving it a stark, poignant voice sixty years later. Guevara grew up in Marion, Indiana, where the actor was born.

In 1954, Dean met perhaps the one real romance of his brief life. Italian actress Pier Angeli was barely 22 when her movie The Silver Chalice coincided with Dean’s East of Eden at Warner Brothers. She’d sneak over to watch him perform, and he would do the same. When they finally interact, Pier’s mother disapproves of Dean’s behavior, attire and not being Catholic.

Some say it was all for the limelight and publicity. Guevara’s gripping and frank story vies otherwise, excavating the actor’s true passion for the lovely but quaint Ms. Angeli.

Guevara is also the author of True Feel, A Circle with Two Corners, and Days of Slint, the first James Dean conceptual novel.

Criticism About Books Lips of a Mastodon

We, my husband and I, agree with most of what is claimed under this novel, just not quite sure of how high the star rating gets! True, this unknown author has potential, perhaps a smooth quality to his writing, so fluid one tends to overlook grammatical errors. I found six. But yes, over time they can just be part of the book's characteristic. The plot is in order enough, day to day. One thing I see is every time that there's crisis, the flow of the narrative also goes asunder, not just in the

This is the first fiction I've read in a very long time. Mr. Guevara usually publishes poetry. His latest, Birds on Elephant, I have on my shelf.

The characterization of James Dean in this novel uses death as a primary tool. He is narrating from the grave. Though at peace, he prefers life, to the exact moment of the love he once knew. Interesting. Worth my time at night, at a toll booth.

Recently, Ted Bernal Guevara posted in his Facebook [James Dean] loved to laugh, always made use of the moment as lively as possible, or else This maybe. But the author seemed to forget the waning in his novel, Lips of a Mastodon. Though, the writing is good, and the plot seems to be in order, his profile of the actor is soaked in booze and experimental drug use. Happiness in the moment does not exist. Whether the escape is from the denial of Pier Angeli or from a rough youth, the actor here is

Received this book through Goodreads Giveaways. I know little of James Dean and was looking forward to this read. I felt the passion of Dean, but not the relationship. At times was confused by Dean's thoughts. They jumped around too much. Realize Mr. Guevara was trying to channel his character. The book just didn't do much for me.

One thing that lacks in the front cover or what this novel recommends before reading it is the note: YOU MUST BE A JAMES DEAN FAN! Guevara ventures on putting out a story written for the general adult audience and gambles on "You don't need to know my characters beforehand. Just enjoy my narrative."Bold aim. To me, I pretended not to know James Dean and still had a joyous ride in what a novel puts you through, in reading Lips of a Mastodon. But that's me, a Hollywood flake.Furthermore, Guevara

Reads like velvet...definitely know James Dean now. I will watch his movies!
