A warm-spirited elegy to an abandoned work, brilliantly comic and wryly contemplative, by one of the great artist-investigators of our time.
Originally published in 2008 in the groundbreaking Atelos series, To After That (TOAF) introduced a new kind of writing-somewhere between criticism and memoir and philosophy-that Renee Gladman has continued to explore in books like Calamities and My Lesbian Novel.
TOAF is a recuperative song, an effort to give space and life to an abandoned project, but it is also, itself, a beautiful meditation on process and distance and duration, and a reminder that time is the subject of any writing.
