Altered States: Championing the Uncanny
i think; therefore, i am not: a book review of ‘thomas the obscure’
by Dylan Desmond
“Like a drop of water and coffee combining on a plate, Thomas understands he and Anne’s connection. “I was her tragic double.” Both aspects of being and non-being connecting as simultaneously living and dead instances the two shared a current of understanding in ignorance. Like the sun, using all its energy to make itself night.”
as for the future: a book review of ‘hour of the star’ by clarice lispetor
by Dylan Desmond
“At its core, the story is an existential conflict within the narrator. To take the meaning of that sentence as a microcosm, the story is about the human qualities of playing God.”
the uncanniness of altered spaces
by Dylan Desmond
“The uncanniness of our collective experiences is shared amongst us in literature and, here, in our altered spaces.”
