Permission - Paperback
by S. D. Chrostowska (Author)
Consisting of anonymous e-mail messages sent by the author to an acclaimed visual artist over the course of a year, Permission is the record of an experiment: an attempt to forge a connection with a stranger through the writing of a book. Part meditation, part narrative, part essay, it is presented to its addressee as a gift that asks for no thanks or acknowledgement--but what can be given in words, and what received? Permission not only updates the epistolary novel by embracing the permissiveness we associate with digital communication, it opens a new literary frontier.
S. D. Chrostowska is the author of "Literature on Trial: The Emergence of Critical Discourse in Germany, Poland & Russia, 1700-1800." She is Assistant Professor of European Studies in the Department of Humanities at York University.
