The Opening Lines of My New Book…


October 8th, 2008

Jeanette Winterson is my favorite. Her books are totally gorgeous. I just started reading Gut Symmetries, and the way it starts is so awesome:

November 10 1493. Einsiedeln, Switzerland. Sun in Scorpio.
First there is the forest and inside the forest the clearing and inside the clearing the cabin and inside the cabin the mother and inside the mother the child and inside the child the mountain.

    I’m uncultured, and have no taste for poetry. Keep me posted on the book’s message, though.
