This was wonderful to read, Eve & I'm so glad the Hjorth interview resounded with you!! Karim Kazemi did such a great job with that one, it's full of so many gems and surprises (I had no idea Hjorth was ever in prison?!). I read Ghost Pains in that long stretch at the end of December and beginning of January last year, which seems almost as eerie a time as October- the final two pieces are two of my favorites, so I'm really hoping you'll love them! and if you're a fan of Rumpel (as I was!), I spoke with Jessi last January and she talked a bit about its origins here (https://chireviewofbooks.com/2024/03/08/disintegrating-worldviews-a-conversation-with-jessi-jezewska-stevens-on-ghost-pains/) --and lastly! do you know Maggie Smith's "Poem Beginning With A Retweet"? When I read the bit above about the geese on your drive, it came to mind right away <3
So late responding to this!! The Hjorth initerview is crazy!!! and you've totally inspired me to pull through with Ghost Pains--I loved reading your interview wiht Stevens. What are the odds!?
Was not previously familair with "Poem Beginning With A Retweet," but so glad to be now! Xx
