quote interested in women’s life-writing, and how such a life comes to be1 quote

it is literary feast

it is stirring xl quote
lush
it is unchained
it is always painful, always exhausting
it is theatre of cruelty and tenderness in which the protagonist is narrator

it is xl delicious and decadent and not too sweet
it is xl exploration of female desire and hunger, *woman's microcosm*

it is xl past and future lives collide
it is xl entire epochs in one line-break
it is xl extinct and resurrected

it can reclaim a little more time(lessness)

it is xl free from
it is xl onomatopoeia and speed

it is quote mouth-watering

it is characters yanked from one panel to the next
it is relentless

it is tall tales
domestic bliss

as if

received by

*auto-socio-biographique*

it is             memory wind instrument
it is             writing to save what has happened2
events. characters. sharps turns. 
it struggles to speak

it borrows3
it jaggs cuts3
it jump shots3
grafting

it is found space in the inside of the text as the poétesse once did, translating her own name4

it is fiction in translation4
postcard

it is contribution
it is drawing on paper

it is dispersed,
intertextual

tendency to eradicate the past tense2

I know exactly where I was when I read it
