“The Tenth
Symphony.” Georgia Review 35 (1981):
583-93. Finalist for the 1982 Pushcart Prize in Non-fiction. (Translated into
Portuguese and republished in Brazil as “Decima Sinfonia” in Cultura, 1 August 1982.)
Another one of my favorites, this 2nd Georgia Review essay was an outgrowth of the "discovery that there is nothing to discover" theme that drove my dissertation. Its subjects--Vonnegut, Wittgenstein, Kierkegaard, Zen Buddhism--were and have remained obsessions.
Now available in The Ventriloquist.
