...Universe, James spent 1999 living in a bungalow in Bali observing what he calls the "fairy-dust world" that is expatriate life. The offspring of that year is a fun, slightly trashy novel that's quick and pleasurable to read, not least because it gives you the voyeur's thrill of trawling through all those private e-mails...
...Full Monty is really just a tease--the male strippers bare all at the end of the Broadway musical as blinding stage lights prevent the audience from seeing anything--but a well-traveled off-Broadway theatergoer these days is starting to feel like a voyeur in a Chelsea bathhouse. In just the past few months, we have had a naked Frankenstein's creature (Monster), a naked undercover cop (Blue Surge) and naked just about everybody (Mnemonic).

That's not where they went. Hollywood went for the teen-boy market, while European films retreated into a sort of catatonic minimalism. Now--or, rather, finally--directors are again dramatizing, how human beings reveal their power, vulnerability, joy and desperation in their most intimate moments...
