 The Name of the Lord's Supper
For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me."...

 BABYLON   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
I'd only read a couple of Richard Calder's short stories many years prior to my picking up this book – and they were intriguing, so much so that I have at least half a dozen of his other books in my collection that I have yet to find time to read.
There is the conclusion of Richard Calder’s long serialized novella After the Party, a structurally confusing but intriguing story about a ritual whore of sorts who falls in love with a man dedicated to murdering prostitutes.
A companion to the author’s imminent novel Babylon, this can be seen as a culmination of Calder’s long fascination with issues of eroticism: the association of orgasm with death; the fetishization of the sexual Other as Object; decadence and the politics of “perversion”.

Malignos, with its middle-aged exiled cynic and ex-soldier, Richard Pike, is, for all its fl humour and the lush imagery prevalent in so much of Calder's work, in essence a straightforward, exciting quest through foreign lands both beloved and familiar to lovers of sword-and-sorcery fantasy.
For the former, he cited The Lord of the Rings for the way in which it evoked landscape; and for the latter he named Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time, a quest to recover memory.
Calder's prose is rich without being overpowering, painting a highly visual picture of obsessed characters pursuing their dreams of love, power and redemption in baroque landscapes draped in deep carnal velvet shades of red and fl.

 The Hip Messiah
And in the 1950s, it also produced Lord Buckley, the enigmatic subject of Charles Pike's fascinating new biographical comedy, "The Hip Messiah," which is on view at Donny's Skybox in Piper's Alley, courtesy of the Prop Theatre.
This fake nobleman was actually the royal alter ego of one Richard Buckley, a hip but bizarre fellow whose routine was something of a cross between the verbal jazz improv beloved of the beats, and a character-based comic who loved to play with words.
The main draw of this spotty but engaging show is actor Richard Henzel's brilliant re-creation of Buckley's manic free-associative routines, many of which used Amos 'n' Andy-style humor to simultaneously satirize and exploit racial stereotypes.
