I Use A Dildo And Im 13

Carver The question

is now fashionable to refer to the first two books of Raymond Carver (" Want you please shut up, please? " and " do we mean when we talk about love ") and books " Carver & Lish "in reference to the considerable pruning work of the famous (or infamous, depending on the point of view) editor Gordon Lish.

The idea is understandable. The second book, Lish cut 55% of the original text, title changed and some other end. Was creating a style, minimalism, and this movement probably owes most to the author Lish. But precisely, even if it's an extreme example of editing, the author, the creative head of those stories, who led the paper's stories Lish then edit it, it was Carver.

Moreover, by knowing some fame, he could finally break free from his perspective-from-invasive Lish's editing, and his next book (for many his masterpiece), " Cathedral" was published as Carver wanted his books were published. Just look at the length of the texts.

An editor can invent a stylistic movement, but never could invent an author.

Gravely 152 Xdz Price

The right age for obvious

Extract from an interview I did to Andrew Neumann for # 10 of Another Heaven :

(Continued from questions about the manifesto on the story that the author includes end of his first book of stories, which many here saw as an act of arrogance).

" strange thing had been to sign a shown with 40 or 50 years when the skepticism and relativity of things deter you from certain emphasis. So I see no conflict there. And as you indicate, that text about the story (like the others that came later) had a lot more reflection on gender. Inventory was a little tentative conclusions. Never crossed my mind that its role was to define what a story or how it should be written. I see these texts as theoretical journals, and notes up on writing stories. They can (and often) contradict each other, generate discussion. The theory is that interest me, which runs parallel to writing, reformulated with it. "
