Swimming Laps: Stories and Meditations
Description:
B.H. Friedman, the original biographer of Jackson Pollock (Jackson Pollock: Energy Made Visible), gathers together in his latest book of fiction, Swimming Laps, twelve stories and meditations that cover a thirty-eight year period, from 1961 to 1999. Pre-eminently social and yet Minimalist, poignant and yet severe in his characterizations, Friedman confronts unflinchingly our destiny as human beings. His wry insights force us to face the singular but inescapable conditions of what it means to be always simultaneously at the end and at the beginning of our lives.
