you missed the point of the story and spoiled the ending. it was i think the first detective story ever.

sherlock holmes, etc, all came after.

i'm sorry about your dad's unfortunate timing lololololol

how old were you?

Not sure. 10? Anyway, props to a story for giving me nightmares. This is a good thing, as far as I'm concerned. I'm not sure it's happened since.

Anthologies are aight. I have a great Borges short story anthology that I swiped from my stepdad so I could talk to Symbols about stuff.

Often, though, I find that anthologies are best for either introductory or mega-fan/completist purposes. I am a big fan of literary SF mindblower Gene Wolfe. After I read all of his novels, I felt like a part of mylife had ended, but my girlfriend bought me a copy of his "Book of Days," a collection of letters, essays, rare or out of print short stories, and poems, and it was like getting a big old dose of methadone in the middle of a heroin withdrawal. Not quite the right medicine, but it helped the symptoms quite a bit. I've been cherry-picking segments from that book and reading one every week or so to extend the "halflife" of the book, as I try to adjust to life without new Gene Wolfe. (He's still writing new stuff every once in a while, but it's been gradually decreasing in quality since the early '00s.)

The Borges anthology served as an excellent introduction though. So, yeah... beginners and experts are best served by the anthology.

Weren't we talking about Hemingway though? I would not start on Hemingway an anthology.

poe gave nightmares to generations to come.

the mask of the red death! the black cat! the pit and the pendulum!

ha ha you know roger corman made these into movies? and the french loved him for it ha ha ha.

poe was an extraordinary writer, was there at the founding of the modern short story genre, introduced america to a bunch of dark shit, got a million kids into cryptography, invented the detective story, was a great poet and critic and literary theorist.

the guy had brains, and more imagination than the whole XX century put together. all we do is refry his shit now and ignore the source.

except for nabokov who did pay homage.

i need to look up poe again. he's become some sort of cultural cartoon figure at this point, only because he was so good this is how people had to exorcise him.

Yeah. Ever seen that movie with John Cusak playing Poe? Portrayed him as a real goon. Also did some pretty wild speculation about his death. Yay Hollywood.

no i didn't. are you joking or "for serious"?

holy shit you're serious! (i just googled)

no idea about that movie.

i don't wanna see it lol

===

as for borges anthologies which ones did you read? and did you know that there's a weird story about the rights to borges translations?

his widow, apparently... oooofff! i'd better not say.

but i'm curious about what you wrote.

i wouldn't recommend borges in an anthology. rather, i'm the anthology, and would say: this book, that book, etc.

well, an anthology of one author is often OK, but the ones with the editors choice I'm usually appalled at their choices.

I got to meet Area X author Jeff Vandermeer yesterday. He had a talk and reading at the UH Honors college, one of the cool perks to working at a University. He spoke at length about the themes he has been exploring since the writing of area X.

He also showed still images from the upcoming Annhihilation film.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT ROB!

How could you not have told me?!

(I got Rob into Jeff Vandermeer )...

...

Thanks awesome man. Just awesome! What did he say about the film? Based on everything I've heard about the cast (Natalie Portman as Biologist; Jennifer Jason Leigh as Psychologist), the director (dude who did Ex-Machina) -- not to mention the fucking MUSIC by Geoff Barrow of Portishead!! -- it's going to be fucking incredible.

Are they going to do all three, or just ANNIHILATION?

Did you tell him you got into his books through this awesome SY and Kanye fan names Severian who also does journalism-y stuff and should maybe work in publishing?

Seriously.
Answer my question.

Thanks awesome man. Just awesome! What did he say about the film? He said the film was cool yet weird for him. He stated that having a $50 million budget freaked him out while the movie people kept telling him that was a "small" film budget. He stated they shared a soundstage with the Star Wars films and that Star Wars filming was behind a massive giant metal door, and at the end of shooting they wold dump our a ton of set decorations used that day and the Anhihilation crew would steal the refuse and use it in the anhihilation movie. hahahahah.

Based on everything I've heard about the cast (Natalie Portman as Biologist; Jennifer Jason Leigh as Psychologist), the director (dude who did Ex-Machina) -- not to mention the fucking MUSIC by Geoff Barrow of Portishead!! -- it's going to be fucking incredible. - He said that he was shocked to see that the all-female cast is tiny people. He said that he was on set when the ladies first wore all their costuming and they walked towards him from about 20 feet away but they did not get any bigger, since they are all TINY, and it warped his visual spatial sense for a minute. He said that several of the actors read all three books before filming which was awesome for him as he expected none of them to read anything other than the script.

Are they going to do all three, or just ANNIHILATION? All Three, if the first one is good.

Did you tell him you got into his books through this awesome SY and Kanye fan names Severian who also does journalism-y stuff and should maybe work in publishing? Yes I did. First thing I said to him, besides hello, was that you introduced me to his work and that I read all three area x novels becuse of it. I handed him my card and asked him if he could to go read my reviews of his books, and let me know what his thoughts were. I did n't mention Kanye because I did not want Jeff Vandermeer to get the wrong impression of you. hahahahahhahah!

Seriously.
Answer my question.

Super cool. I'm happy for you!

I feel like three films would be a challenge based on the way the books play out. They go against the heroe's journey that is so big in trilogies, what with shifting narratives and perspectives and getting weird as all fuck.

But since he first page of ANNIHILATION, I thought it could make an excellent bizarro speculative, philosophical horror piece. That's the best of the books, as I think you agreed back when we were reading them.

I'm so glad something I recommended actually made this big of an impression on you. That just makes me feel useful.

Nice Rob. Nice.
