remembering dismembrance: a critical compendium
Quirky, cerebral, exquisitely tortuous, Daniel Takeshi Krause’s first novel, Remembering Dismembrance, takes the form of a compendium of critical responses to a novel titled, Dismembrance, and advertises itself as a "second synchronic snapshot of discourse in action...claiming its place as not just the leading anthology for its subject matter but, in point of fact, the definitive piece of Dismemorabilia. It is, put simply, the only absolutely indispensable thread for anyone looking to enter this particular labyrinth.” But which labyrinth is that?
_____________________________ Praise for Remembering Dismembrance: “On the rooftop of 11 rue Simon-Crubellier, Borges meets up with Baudrillard to make moderately tender fun of Barthes with a knowing wink from Nicholson Baker while Lewis Carroll goes whistle-strolling by arm-in-arm with a resurrected David Foster Wallace, and that’s just for starters, in Daniel Takeshi Krause’s impeccably deranged and disarranged’ Remembering Dismembrance. I predict that like the elusive novel it purports to contain, and that I dare you to find, your copy of Krause’s debut will lose its ‘knack for closing’ because you will not ever be able to put it down.” —Laird Hunt, author of The Impossibly “Brilliant, beautiful, bracing, Remembering Dismembrance forms a ventriloquistic meditation about how what isn’t there is always there, like all the earlier versions of yourself, like a good friend who took his own life. Daniel Takeshi Krause does nothing less than revitalize what we once thought of as “The Novel” with a metacognitive bite and laser-bright imagination.” —Lance Olsen, author of My Red Heaven |
