Lara Durback responds to Carrie Hunter's The Incompossible

A new response to Carrie Hunter's The Incompossible by Lara Durback now up at Black Radish Blog: "Like me, Carrie yearns for graph paper....I think the yearning for the grid is about wanting to draw around the grid, wanting to write diagonally on the grid, write all over and take apart the grid.  Wanting to think about how to get around the grid, this 'real' predisposed, measured, mapped plan of living."  Read Lara's full response at here.


The Incompossible is available from SPD.

Deborah Poe interview
