I AM OVERSTIMULATED

September 20th, 2007

This was my week:

Tuesday: Deb Olin Unferth and Paul La Farge
Wednesday: Lydia Davis
Thursday: Diane Williams (not reading, just signing and chatting)

Notes:
- Christine Schutt and Bill Hayward were at the Williams event, too.
- Lydia Davis read from a new project where dreams are juxtaposed with strange things that happened in real life. They are funny and Lydia Davis-like. She also read my favorite story from Varieties of Disturbance:

The Hand

Beyond the hand holding this book that I’m reading, I see another hand lying idle and slightly out of focus-my extra hand.

There are so many readings in New York. I spend a lot of time online looking for readings and might start listing them here, so that we don’t all have to spend a lot of time online looking for readings. I am enthusiastic about it.
