Reading another Carver book. Is there anyone more real than Raymond Carver?
Who else would insert the line:
"She worked Wednesdays through Sundays."
on its own in between two paragraphs? No one, that's who.

My thoughts, views, critiques, fanboyisms, and rantings about music. Also movies and books, I guess. Click the links to find great video footage, wikipedia definitions, band bios/photos, and more.

My favorite Raymond Carver story (so far) is "Cathedral."
That one's good. I read that book. It was great. He writes little snapshots that are really the essence of what America is.
Cathedral's one of those. As I remember, all this stuff's going on in his house, but he looks at the TV and there's a Cathedral on it and he can't get out of his paradigm.... like he realizes that he can't comprehend what a catheral really looks like or is, because it's so foreign to him. If my memory is correct.
