Literary Nonfiction. NILLING: PROSE is a sequence of five loosely
linked prose essays about noise, pornography, the codex,
melancholy, Lucretius, folds, cities and related aporias: in short,
these are essays on reading.I have tried to make a sketch or a
model in several dimensions of the potency of Arendt's idea of
invisibility, the necessary inconspicuousness of thinking and
reading, and the ambivalently joyous and knotted agency to be found
there. Just beneath the surface of the phonemes, a gendered name
rhythmically explodes into a founding variousness. And then the
strictures of the text assert again themselves. I want to claim for
this inconspicuousness a transformational agency that runs counter
to the teleology of readerly intention. Syllables might call to
gods who do and don't exist. That is, they appear in the text's
absences and densities as a motile graphic and phonemic force that
abnegates its own necessity. Overwhelmingly in my submission to
reading's supple snare, I feel love.
