Archive for March, 2015. James Shea’s The Lost Novel. On Mar.06, 2015. Is haunted by absence in the way other collections are haunted by memory. Crows seal the sky. They speak of their suffering in long, distant sentences. The title itself hints at absence, too, though in this case it’s an actual loss: the lost novel. Is the novel lost as in left behind somewhere, and cannot be found? Or lost in the sense of the writer having lost the thread of the novel and therefore not being able to complete it? Becau...

Detroit is Baroque: Ruins, Pornography, Kitsch, Pedagogy | Montevidayo

Detroit is Baroque: Ruins, Pornography, Kitsch, Pedagogy. On Apr.03, 2014. This past weekend I went to Detroit to give a reading at the Salt and Cedar. Press, and it got me to thinking about “ruin porn” again, a pet topic of mine. As probably all of you know, “ruin porn” is the phrase used to condemn beautiful photographs of the ruins of Detroit (though I’ve also seen it on a local level, photographs of the ruins of South Bend at the local museum interestingly):. What interests me about the anti-porn rhe...

Book Reviews: Scanlon & Theis | Montevidayo
http://montevidayo.com/book-reviews-scanlon-theis
Book Reviews: Scanlon & Theis. On Nov.27, 2012. By Suzanne Scanlon (Dorothy, a publishing project). This book consist of a series of narrative fragments, somewhat like Denis Johnson’s. Is by no means a copy of that novel. (I’m not saying this as a criticism of Johnson, whose work I love, but as a criticism of the countless Johnson-like stories and books that came out after. Another element I like about this book is how it openly wears its influences on its sleeve, and yet never in a coy, Gosh-I’m-smart m...

“… orgiastic barrage of smut”: On Taste, Sensationalism and Haute Surveillance | Montevidayo
http://montevidayo.com/orgiastic-barrage-of-smut-on-taste-sensationalism-and-haute-surveillance
8220;… orgiastic barrage of smut”: On Taste, Sensationalism and Haute Surveillance. On Apr.13, 2015. The other day I discovered an interesting review of Haute Surveillance on Publisher’s Weekly. How can a text both be a barrage that drowns the reader and be “exhaustive critique”? Why would someone want to subject himself or his reader to such “smut”? Can there be any other way than the “critique” of engaging with US culture (and its splendid images, its barrage, its violence)? Here’s the review:. One pla...
