The Shalom Auslander is sooo my super hero writer of the week.
I loved his pieces in Nerve/Nextbook/The New Yorker and elsewhere.
His new book Foreskins Lament sounds like quite the memorable memoir.
His unique presentation, profound opinings /sardonic perspectives are a smooth blend of trusty truisms/realistic plasticity/ soul stripping & searching/ unorthodox humor and rumination flavored rum.
Rumination flavored rum when mixed with the proper levels of profound in-depth analysis/ unhappy happenstance's of the past/,and plenty of outrageous writing talent makes for quite the quintessential must purchase memoir.
About Me
- Jaded Topaz
- Just tryin to fix the focus I've managed to fabricate with the wrong materials, mainly, polyester platitudes and rayon reasonings. I used to always take the scenic route, I've subsequently come to understand it's just a fucking distraction and a waste of energy. I love arguing/the truth/color and the care bears. Frequent trips to amusement parks is of equal importance..... as is the recurring pipe dream to subsequently avoid the long term hurt generally associated with impulsive short term oriented - sharp ,living on the edge choices of Jaded ,Jittery and Sparkly Crystal. Stuff I learnt = "The grass is always greener when confined to small circular metal spaces for decorative purposes only","When life gives you lemons make lemondrops and drink until you dont know the difference between spent faith and spent effort".... I'm also a sucker for sequins.
