15 April 2021: Diane Donovan reviews
my new collection of poems in both
Donovan's Bookshelf and the Midwest Book
Review. "SELECTED
POEMS features 101 poems, 40 of which
have been printed in numerous print and
online journals since 1985. The rest are new
to this collection, and represent a
satisfying blend of old and new works
designed to appeal to newcomers and prior
fans alike. Rob Couteau's works are diverse.
They follow no set poetic structure, even
defying some of them when the muse strikes
and special needs indicate that the subject
is more important than poetic form.... His
inspections of artistic, literary, and
social issues are astute and compelling....
Don't anticipate set structures, uniform
poetic approaches, or singular subjects
here. SELECTED
POEMS offers a freewheeling approach
to poems and life alike, and is a thought
provoking, evocative gathering of works
recommended for literary readers not bound
by convention or rules." With an
Introduction by the poet, critic, and
literary historian Edward Foster. Available
on Amazon
and internationally on Bookfinder.
15 December 2020: Black
Op Radio interview about my reissuing
of the book MURDER MOST FOUL! THE CONSPIRACY
THAT MURDERED PRESIDENT KENNEDY by Stanley J
Marks. This was a very special event because
my dear friend Bobbie Marks, the daughter of
the author, was on the show with me. Bobbie
shares special memories of her father and
his extraordinary work. Please tune in for a
unique experience.
8 December 2020: Stanley J. Marks' TWO DAYS OF INFAMY
is now back in print for the first time since
March 1969. It also features my Introduction,
"The Stanley Marks Revival: The Prophecies of
Murder Most Foul! and Two Days of Infamy." An
abridged
version of this essay is hosted at the
Kennedys and King website. JFK scholar and
author James DiEugenio writes: "Rob
Couteau has performed a miraculous deed. He
has gotten two of the late Stanley Marks'
books on the JFK case republished. Marks was
way ahead of the field. While people like
Harold Weisberg and Josiah Thompson were still
counting bullets, he was calling JFK's death a
coup d'etat. That is the perspective he wrote
from way back in the late sixties. Don't pass
up the chance to meet up with a prophet. Read
both of these books. You will be shocked by
the insight in them." For purchase info on TWO
DAYS OF INFAMY go here.
5
December 2020: The
Stanley Marks Revival: The Prophecies of
Murder Most Foul! and Two Days of Infamy.
Thanks to JFK scholar Jim DiEugenio for
inviting me to review MURDER MOST FOUL! and TWO
DAYS OF INFAMY for the Kennedys and King web site.
DiEugenio writes: "Rob Couteau
continues his rediscovery and revitalization
of the long-forgotten works of Stanley Marks
by announcing the reprinting of Murder Most
Foul! and Two Days of Infamy and exploring
here the prophecies and prescience of Marks in
these two works," adding: "Stanley
Marks was an overlooked star of the JFK
research community. Thanks
to Rob and Dylan for being able to unearth
him."
4
November 2020: Stanley
J. Marks' MURDER MOST FOUL! is now back in
print for the first time since September
1967. Includes my in-depth biographical
essay on the blacklisted author's
groundbreaking work and how it may have
influenced Bob Dylan's JFK ballad of the
same name. JFK scholar Jim DiEugenio writes:
"Couteau's work is important, first-rate,
and a wonderful homage to one of the most
important critics of the Warren Report ever
... and an unsung hero in the JFK case.
Stanley Marks was rocket miles ahead of
everyone. He really understood the big
picture early. And not just on the JFK
case." DiEugenio is the foremost scholar on
the Kennedy assassination, author of Destiny
Betrayed: JFK, Cuba, and the Garrison Case,
and scriptwriter for Oliver Stone's
documentary, JFK: Destiny Betrayed (2020).

30 July 2020: Black
Op Radio interview about my new article
at Kennedys and KIng: "Stanley J. Marks and
Murder Most Foul!"
June 2020: Stanley
J. Marks and Murder Most Foul!—A Sequel to
“The Kennedy / Dylan Sensation.” JFK
scholar Jim DiEugenio writes: “Rob Couteau does
a wonderful homage here. I really mean it’s
first-rate. Stanley Marks was rocket miles ahead
of everyone. He really understood the big
picture early. And not just on the JFK
case."
March-April 2020: A newly revised edition
of my novel Doctor Pluss has just been published
(order
on Amazon here), and the April issue of
Midwest Book Review is featuring a glowing review,
written by Diane Donovan, who says: "Doctor
Pluss is exceptionally well developed and
emotionally compelling, connecting metaphorical
description with experienes s that often
challenge the traditional roles of doctor and
patient, linking them in unexpected ways …
Couteau is not afraid to push the literary
boundaries of convention in pursuit of a
different form of descriptive truth, bringing
readers along in a rollicking ride through
schizophrenic experience that ultimately
questions the foundations of reality and
perception from both sides of the therapist's
couch … His interpretations and descriptions of
the schizophrenic experience are particularly
astute, astonishing, and evocatively described …
Readers who choose Doctor Pluss are in for a
treat. It's like One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
on steroids: a thought-provoking examination of
sanity, insanity, and the crossover process that
leaves readers thinking long after this
therapeutic slice of life is consumed." For
the complete review go here.
9 February 2020: Fourteen
of my prose poems are featured in the
annual edition of Talisman, along with The
Cantankerous Krishnamurti, a reminisce

23
September 2019: The
Tragic ‘Years of Lead’: Puppetmasters
Author Philip Willan Talks about the
Manipulation of Terrorism, the Global War on
the Left, and the Links between the JFK and
Aldo Moro Assassinations. A prolific
journalist with the UK's Guardian and London
Times newspapers, Philip Willan's books include
"Puppetmasters: The Political Use of Terrorism
in Italy" (1991) and "The Vatican at War"
(2013), which is focused on the scandals of the
Vatican bank and how it may have been linked to
funding right-wing terror. In our interview
Willan also discusses the manipulation of the
Red Brigades by Western security forces and the
global war on the left during the Cold War
period (1945-1990).
18 July 2019: Len Osanic interviews
me on Black Op Radio about my new article at
KennedysandKIng: "NATO’s Secret Armies,
Operation Gladio, and JFK"
15
July 2019: Author James DiEugenio writes: "There
is the Big Picture and then there is the World
Wide Picture. This article by Rob Couteau
addresses the latter. Using powerful work by
authors like Daniele Ganser and Phillip Willan
about Gladio, and Michele Metta’s revelatory
volume on Permindex, Rob Couteau’s milestone
article shows how the murders of Kennedy and
Moro, and the attempts on De Gaulle, were not
isolated events." NATO’s
Secret Armies, Operation Gladio, and JFK,
featured at KennedysandKing.com.

March
9, 2016. More
Collected Couteau received a glowing
review from the Midwest
Book Review: "The joy of reading Couteau's
works lies as much in his penetrating,
crystalline language as it does in the works or
figures being examined, and so readers receive a
wide-ranging treat that examines victims,
vengeance, mortality and immortality through an
inspection process that educates even those
unfamiliar with the subject [...] Readers
seeking not just a literary presentation but a
lively analysis of selected wordsmiths and their
lives and influences must add More Collected
Couteau to their reading lists. It's a powerful
presentation that offers much insight and food
for thought, and which should find its way into
many a college classroom as well." See
the complete review here. Available on amazon.
February
5, 2016. My new book of literary essays and
interviews, More
Collected Couteau, was just reviewed by Publishers
Weekly, Select: "Couteau's essays are
informal, fervent, and well-versed examinations
of the work or author at hand. At their best,
they include fascinating insights into the
significance of a writer like [Hubert] Selby....
The interviews are uniformly strong and include
conversations with Michael Korda on T.E.
Lawrence, Justin Kaplan on Walt Whitman, and
Robert Roper on Vladimir Nabokov. Not all of
them focus on literature: author Jeffrey Jackson
covers the 1910 flood of Paris and why it's
relatively forgotten, and Robert De Sena, in one
of the best interviews, discusses his life as a
gang member turned community activist. Couteau's
passion and wealth of knowledge are obvious
throughout the book ... and should appeal to
many readers." Complete

of the times; but for a more in-depth survey of
the philosophies, approaches, and concerns of
the protests, Portraits from the Revolution is

I'm honored to be published in the last issue of
the Evergreen Review that was edited by
him (spring 2012). The former owner of Grove
Press and the first American publisher of Henry
Miller and Samuel Beckett, Barney led the legal
battle to publish D. H. Lawrence's unexpurgated
"Lady Chatterley's Lover" and Henry Miller's Tropic
of Cancer, defending the latter in over 60
obscenity trials all the way to the U.S. Supreme
Court and changing book publishing history
forever. He continued to produce the Evergreen
Review and he would have turned 90 in May
2012.

Portraits
from the Revolution: Interviews with the
Protestors from Occupy Wall Street, 30 September
- 8 October 2011: "Most American
readers will harbor a prior, casual familiarity
with the Occupy Wall Street movement of 2011 based
on newspaper headlines and events of the times;
but for a more in-depth survey of the
philosophies, approaches, and concerns of the
protests, Portraits from the Revolution:
Interviews with the Protestors from Occupy Wall
Street, 30 September - 8 October 2011 is the item
of choice, offering unprecedented depth and detail
on the history and lasting impact of the Occupy
Wall Street movement.
Rob Couteau conducted a series of interviews with
movement leaders; and while one might think the
contents of these pieces would have been reported
by the media - they were not. It's also important
to note that Portraits from the Revolution remains
the only in-depth text interview of participants
that is available: so if readers wish to gain more
than a casual news report's insights, Portraits
from the Revolution is the item of choice.
Chapters explore not just each individual's
actions, but their backgrounds, reasons for
participating in Occupy Wall Street, and their
experiences, and offers criticism of media
reporting of the movement's history, intentions,
and approaches.
From how participants decided to react to violent
antagonism against the Occupy movement to the
social and political ramifications of not just
Occupy but the elements it opposed, these
interviews capture participants from all walks of
life, from teens to full-time workers, and turns
the newspaper reports into a series of personal
vignettes about Occupy's deeper meaning.
Any who would better understand the events and the
meaning behind news reports must turn to Portraits
from the Revolution for a clearer vision of the
'why and how' of the times." -- Diane Donovan,
Midwest Book Review, November 2015.

The Sleeping Mermaid: "Novelist
