She let me teach her how to pour a black and tan. Black and tans--any day, or time of day--far out-rock the Sweetwater. As for Natty Hawthorne: why is YGB always anthologized? It's great and all, but Rappaccini's Daughter and The Birthmark always get ignored. We can pretty much thank Hawthorne for every camp 1950s horror movie ever made. More than Shelley, even, Hawthorne's responsible for Hollywood's version of Frankenstein. Just for that, for the gothic, my friends, Hawthorne is my death metal. Even Poe has to bow to the master of the one-trick side character. Maybe Dickens has him beat . . .Jamie Iredellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18446531001534837853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1256348635404703468.post-46949972287798887402008-09-01T21:17:00.000-04:002008-09-01T21:17:00.000-04:00Poe created the American gothic without being in A...Poe created the American gothic without being in America. Flannery O'Connor would not be herself without Poe. Neither would Faulkner. He wrote horror stories without monsters--the horror came from people. He drank a lot of absinthe and died in a gutter somewhere in France. He made poem refrains terrifying. He wrote about Freud's uncanny before Freud started doing coke. Henry James <I>wishes</I> he was Edgar Allen Poe.<BR/><BR/>Plus, I just typed all that after breaking my ring finger in a tetherball match with my brother.

I don't have that around to quote, so here's something from "Sickos," another very good story:<BR/><BR/>"And now N has found her—through a search, admittedly an unheroic one, a search where she did not have to climb mountains or cross seas or go downtown and poke around in a box of unmatched mittens, did not even have to leave her chair, but merely had to think about her friend and press a few buttons, which makes her think it should be called a summoning, not a search. A subpoena, perhaps."<BR/><BR/>I'm excited for her novel.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1256348635404703468.post-15344325027726136382008-08-31T22:46:00.000-04:002008-08-31T22:46:00.000-04:00Oh, and I will say this.
