Description

...make[s] a reader think of a precocious child who insists on pointing out to his parents that, in fact, the ocean is not blueYou just have to look at it, the child might say, and thenwhen that doesnt seem to make his parents jump up and down with excitement at this revelationproceeds to draw up a large chart where he has used every blue crayon in the box, and then insisted they review the chart closely, because now, the child thinks, they will understand the extraordinary depth of his discovery."~ Christopher Lura Lura Editorial Craft & LineThese two little books may seem like strange bedfellows. I mean, an alldialogue transcript that tracks an interrogationroom conversation between a forensic psychologist and a serial killer, and a philosophical dissertation of some absurd sort do not immediately scream romance but, for a number of reasons, they do belong sidebyside.First of all, both Tailgater and Definition fall into an indeterminate twilight zone length and contentwise we dont know whether to call Tailgater a short story, a long story, a dialogue, a play, a graphic novel, a short novel, a novella, a novelette and what is Definition anyway an essay, a study, a dissertation, a parody, an absurdity, a joke? So, just as a physicalpractical matter, it makes sense to publish these two things together if you put them together, then at least you get something that looks like the right and normal size and, as a categorical matter, it makes sense to publish them together...
