compliment

the sincerest form of flattery is actually accusations of otherness.

A recent link to this blog came through a discussion board upon which someone asked for maps of Moby Dick, and another one replied with a link to my Moby Dick literary map post ... prefacing the link with:

Warning: This is an odd website.

Genuine delight. Braggadocio. Swagger and self-absorption.

We are Odd.

  • Geography and space are always gendered, always raced, always economical and always sexual. The textures that bind them together are daily re-written through a word, a gaze, a gesture. -- Irit Rogoff

    The books one reads in childhood, and perhaps most of all the bad and good bad books, create in one's mind a sort of false map of the world, a series of fabulous countries into which one can retreat at odd moments throughout the rest of life, and which in some cases can survive a visit to the real countries which they are supposed to represent.
    -- George Orwell
