MB readers,

This essay is in The Siren's Song, ed. Jospovici (Indiana, 1982).

I wouldn't mind reading these two essays, Clarity of Fiction and The
Work and Death's Space (nice suggestion), side by side.  Most of us
probably have access to Linda's suggestion already at hand. We'll just
take it from there? (Deciding how to proceed in advance seems
uncomfortable to me.)

Hi,
Sorry it has taken me so long to reply--I've been away and can't post to
the list from my hotmail account.

"The Clarity of Fiction" sounds fine to me.  Does anyone know where it
is published?
Any suggestions on how to go about the discussion of it?

Next, I would like to read "The Work and Death's Space" in _The Space of
Literature_, if anyone else is interested.

thanks,
Linda
