2005 -- A Child Again

[Nathan "N.R."]

Another beautiful book object from McSweeney's ; this one features "Heart Suite", written on several playing cards, packaged in a pocket on the back cover.

Just got this in the mail today. Absolutely gorgeous bookmaking. "Heart Suit" is a lovely object. I highly recommend people not to miss out on artwork.

Sorry, Geoff, but it looks like we missed the following by just a few days.

Coover on stage :: "Review: ‘She, After’ explores two women’s worlds of regret" -- one of which pieces is based on Coover's “Alice in the Time of the Jabberwock” from A Child Again ;;

"Ever wonder what happened to Nora, the protagonist of Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House,” after she left her husband and children, slamming the door behind her? Or Alice of “Through the Looking Glass” fame in the years after her adventures? No? Me neither. But composer Daniel Felsenfeld has and has fashioned possible sequels into two short operas, “Nora, in the Great Outdoors” on a libretto by Will Eno and the world premiere of “Alice in the Time of the Jabberwock” on a Robert Coover libretto, that the contemporary opera company UrbanArias has paired as “She, After” and is performing, until Nov. 17, at the Artisphere in Arlington."

Damn. I did indeed drop the ball on this one. Such is life, where we cannot grasp all and sundry, and some of things must be slipping through the fingers.

ARRRGH, I missed this, too!

Wow, this bugs me. I was in a cafe today, and the poster is still up which advertises performances on the 21st (tonight) and 22nd. So, I went to the website - and - NO. Grrrr.

Oh, that is just not very nice. They really should be obliged to honor those posters.
