Urbesque: The Livery of Seisin
http://urbesque.blogspot.com/2009/01/livery-of-seisin.html
Friday, January 23, 2009. The Livery of Seisin. What follows in an excerpt from "The Livery of Seisin", originally published in Paper and Carriage #2. The new books had no vowels. No one spoke his name, only his title. Perhaps it was in keeping with the Jewish tradition of adhering to a strict distinction between the sacred and profane. Our mouths being profane, his name sacred. I had heard it said more than once that if I visited him in Crown Heights, he would give me a dollar to give to charity. The ne...

Urbesque: June 2009
http://urbesque.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 22, 2009. AARON (pt. 2). The day before Aaron flew, his uncle died. His uncle had been dying for a decade, and everyone already thought he was dead. When Aaron received the call, he agreed. When he realized that they meant that he had died today, he was shocked. But not for the same reason they were shocked. They sent their condolences and asked him to write the obituary. 8220;Oh, I’m not really good at public speaking. Especially in public”. 8220;Oh. Do you know if he served in the Army?

Fragments: Fragments, an excerpt
http://fragmentsbydavidcarl.blogspot.com/2009/02/fragments-excerpt.html
Wednesday, February 11, 2009. Fragments, an excerpt. This is the opening of. Fragments. It was also posted on The Green Lantern blog. There was no desire for arrival. The furniture, like the weather, changes without anyone noticing. The dwindling time between arrivals and departures drew her attention to the outdated calendar, an ancient time-map in which she had lost her way. She navigates among the geography of shadows. Orisons for paper cuts. Once upon a time there were any number of alternatives.

Urbesque: JACKSON
http://urbesque.blogspot.com/2009/06/victor.html
Tuesday, June 16, 2009. The alarm clock began to ring softly softly at first. It seemed to grow louder as its tones grew louder and began to make punctuated sense to Jackson. Jackson’s sleep could no longer absorb the acute rings of a clock. Digital, it had no breath, only a staccato scream. He didn’t want to wake up, but he didn’t mind getting up. Who was he to stand up to the strength of such organic synonyms? Jackson wondered, what gave the clock so much confidence? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Fragments: Fragments Forward
http://fragmentsbydavidcarl.blogspot.com/2009/02/fragments-forward.html
Wednesday, February 4, 2009. Below is the Forward to Fragments, written by Joseph Fuller. A pretty sly strategy, your not responding to my earlier missive. Anyway, I took another look at. And, boy, was I off last time. A “crypto-relationship novel”? Of course, it certainly seems to be playing that game, but now I’m pretty sure it’s a red herring. I mean really: “the membrane of language a tenuous barrier to intimacy.”. Maybe you can respond now. Just—something—a crumb or two. Am I on the right track?

Fragments: January 2009

Friday, January 30, 2009. A Review of Fragments. Early one morning near the middle of November 2008, a group of Green Lantern faithfuls hit the streets, inserting a fake section of newsprint into the Chicago free weeklies. Included was the following review of. Friday, January 23, 2009. The following letters are the first two from a series of correspondences between the Senior and Assistant Editors of The Green Lantern Press on the subject of the genre of Fragments. I understand that this is a provisional...
