sphere of interest

schizoanalytic aesthetics:
its problem is
not
beauty as
an object of
contemplation,
but the
way in which
bodies
perceive each
other in the
social
field. Me
and you, this
and
that, the
wasp and the
orchid.
We maybe
here            Why not?           Faint pronouns
fainter in the long night on the long horizon
shaking off a cloud
a
man named
“I can’t remember
anything”
rips pages
out of books
at
random &
studies them. The
eye
consumes these
things and conveys
them
to some
stomach that is
tough
or delicate.
These are the
defamiliarization
techniques with
which we are
so
familiar. Liek
nonelen tusked whoopee.
You

OK. There is
a
repressed and
barely articulated grief –
the extensive killing that has formed the places in which we reside. Begin with the Middle Passage or the ridding and near extermination of many First Nations and indigenous peoples during the colonial expansion of Europe. Begin with the Armenian genocide, or begin with the Holocaust. The accelerating firestorms of aerial bombardment. Begin with the First World War or the Second. Begin with the deaths of diversity – bio-diversity or linguistic diversity. Begin wherever you want, back in another century.

Aimee,
That's a great question. Being so focused on WHERE THINGS COME BACK and getting it ready for bookshelves hasn't allowed for much talk of a second novel. Because it's such a long process (usually 18 months at least from contract to shelves), there isn't any rush in seeing a second book. My agent has, however, read much of the one I'm working on and has discussed it with me. As far as their approval of my approach to writing-it isn't really something that's an issue...at least not as far as I can tell. I think they've worked with enough writers to know that we all have our own systems of getting the job done.
I'm also happy to report that, as of yesterday, I'm back to work (slowly but surely) on novel # 2.
Thanks,
