“Writing such as Du Bouchet’s poetic and prose texts enacts and produces attentiveness that resists speed while being constantly on the move, and combines with distraction to produce focused alertness instead of harried responsiveness to multiple stimuli.

ベン・ラーナーの『Transcription』は、録音されていない会話の「記録」という矛盾そのものを小説の中心的メタファーに据えた作品で、問題となるのは再現の失敗ではなく、むしろあらゆる記録が本来的に反復＝差延の運動に属しているという事態そのものだ。さらに本作は、人と人とを接続するはずのテクノロジーや目的合理性が、かえってコミュニケーションの行き違いを増幅しうることを示唆する。プルーストの『失われた時を求めて』の電話の場面も想起されるが、ラーナーのテクストに響いているのはオルフェウス的な喪失の抒情ではなく、言語というメディウムそのものに内在する、より根源的なコミュニケーションの失敗である。

#sundaysentence “we attempt to create literature, yes, but we also talk about it, because talking about it keeps it alive, and as long as it’s alive, our lives, even if they’re pointless, even if they’re tragically comical and insignificant, won’t be completely wasted.”
