Trab Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 I can't tell if that is uplifting or depressing, but whichever it is, it is certainly thought provoking. Link to comment
Bruin Fisher Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 Well, I didn't find it uplifting, certainly. But I did find it very powerful, compulsive writing. I felt I was there in the heat and the dust and the despair. Life really is like that for countless people in Iraq and other countries, in the Middle East and elsewhere. It is rare that a short piece brings that fact to our attention so clearly, persuasively. Excellent writing, Geoffrey. Link to comment
Camy Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Excellent writing, Geoffrey. Absolutely ... but then he has won a Hugo and a Nebula, so it's not entirely surprising! #Bird falls flat on his face in awe# How's that for tremulous insouciance? http://www.geoffreylandis.com/ Link to comment
Merkin Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Thanks for the link, Camy. Geoffrey claims a 'secret life' as a poet, but it's flashy enough for me to have seen his signals in the sky from afar. James Link to comment
