Genres Synch - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Genres Synch: Personae, Humor, Poetry, Art, Fiction, Memoirs, Interpretation, Exposition is the fourth full-fledged “multi-genres mix” of “Edward/Ed/Eddie/etc.” Both his genres and his personae are not “mixed-up.” In fact, they are well-integrated, although some consider this a matter of opinion. In addition to the four “mixes” (“Mélanges”)─see the list following the “Preface”─his most recent book was a writers-group anthology, The View from Kings Point. This book, actually, is thus his fifth. Hence the title Genres Synch, a play on both the Latin/French/Spanish “quinque”/“cinq”/“cinco” (five) and “being in synchronization/sync,” among other things. The author explores the meaning of his proliferating personae in his books, including this one. They now number about 25; he plans to round them out (or rather “even them out”) at 36 in the future. The writings in Genres Synch range from good-natured humor to satire to avant-garde poetry to fictional stories to diverse memoirs to Hebraic and Classical culture to scholarly exposition. The book features truly outstanding guest contributions─of the author’s wife Reva (Spiro Luxenberg), sons Judah and Benjamin, daughter Aliza, brother Rob, and writing-group friends Joe Bruno and David Jones.
