Publisher Description:
Predilections investigates a set of preoccupations in a variety of literary forms. The preoccupations include the possible historical relationships between Homo Sapiens Sapiens and Homo Sapiens Neanderthalensis, the present relationships between humans and dogs, the relationships between writing systems and modes of thought, and the nature of time. The literary forms in which such preoccupations as these are taken up include essay and novella, stage play, traditional poetry, and non-traditional poetry. The non-traditional poetry is "contrapuntal": two strands constituting a single line are written to each other as well as to the reader; they are read simultaneously, in the way the treble and bass clefs of a piano score are "read," played, simultaneously.
