ISBN: 9781932511932 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 32 str.

Indeed, Lydia Davis is mathematician, philosopher, sculptor, jeweler, and scholar of the minute. Few writers map the process of thought as well as she, few perceive with such charged intelligence.

The piece, written with understated humor and empathy, is a... -You read Lydia Davis to watch a writer patiently divide the space between epiphany and actual human beings by first halves, then quarters, then ei... |

Marcel Proust's genius for illuminating pain is on spectacular display in this recently discovered trove of his correspondence, Letters to His Neighbor. Already suffering from noise within his cork-lined walls, his poor soul was not ready for the fresh hell when his neighbor Dr. Williams married a widow with small children.

In Lydia Davis's hands, the digressive brilliance of his sentences...
