Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Fiction. "This is a singular book. Peter Dimock's "A Short Rhetoric For Leaving The Family" possesses the rich, intricate, and subtle patternings of the verbal lacemaker's craft. A remarkable debut" (Toni Morrison). Hundreds of novels have explored the war in Vi…etnam. This is the first to explore the world of the architects of that war, and it cuts terribly close to home. Dimock brilliantly exposes the pained heart of a single family and offers a vision of what their way of life still costs us all. His book raises with startling freshness ancient yet urgent questions about relations between image, word and act. "For the sake of this bastard's pleasured gain, Father, / you broke the back of the world / losing everything?" In what is both a brilliantly written investigation of family relationships and a scathing attack on the political rhetoric that guides American politics, Dimock creates a diary-like novel in which the narrator instructs his children in the family's sordid history. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: New. Daybook from Sheep Meadow finds Peter Dimock returning to the breakdown of America's imperialist history that he started exploring in his groundbreaking previous novel, George Anderson: Notes for a Love Song in Imperial Time. In Daybook, Dimock expands on what it means to refute the narrative of Americ…an greatness - and what happens once one starts on that path.Historian Tallis Martinson has grappled for years with the atrocities of the American condition through meditative notebook entries, wherein he has attempted to create a "historical method" that guide's an individual 's personal thought outside the language of empire. However, when words fail him completely, he commits himself to a psychiatric facility, mute and unable to write.Daybook presents Tallis' notebook entries, annotated by his brother and editor Christopher Rentho Martinson. Christopher initially follows the entries' complex guided meditations in hopes of being able to reach Tallis during his visits to the psychiatric facility. Instead, he finds himself immersed in his own family's implication in the normalized atrocities of his country's past and present. An experiment in the capacity of literature to re-lay the trajectory of America's future, Daybook stages a space wherein the reader can register - and, potentially, remedy - the criminal catastrophe of the American political arena.
