Laura Kipnis Quotes
Here's The Conundrum: We Want To Tell Our Stories! But If Condensation Is The Language Of Wishes - Especially The Most Verboten And Destructive Ones - The More You Spell The Story Out, The Less Aesthetically Charged It Becomes. The Question Is Whether Untransformed Experience Can Ever Be Aesthetically Powerful, Or Whether It's Simply Interesting. Literary Language Is One Solution, With Its Habits Of Duality - Metaphor, Irony - And Other Techniques For Saying Opposing Things At Once. For Haunting The Reader With Ghosts Of Buried Meanings.
Your Story May Be Interesting, But What If, Paradoxically, It's What You Can't Say That Makes It Lasting?
