Readers will search these pages in vain for coverage of Tbilisi or
Ararat, or praise for Georgian wine or Armenian brandy . . .
although Khachaturian gets an adjective of his own in (all too
typically) a piece addressing the post-war architecture of
Plymouth. Those familiar with Werner Herzog's masterwork The Enigma
of Kaspar Hauser will, however, pick up the reference to Kaspar's
dream-and, accordingly, much of this retrospective selection of
prose-poems deals in the 'remote viewing' that Herzog's flickering
rendition of that dream celebrates. For here are places both far
and near, unknown and known . . . from the Sahara Desert to the
Tamar Valley, from the doomed flatlands of Bla Tarr's Hungarian
puszta to the equally-doomed shores of WG Sebald and Brian Eno's
Dunwich.
