This ‘flash’ by Krasznahorkai is so teachable. A maestro of temporal fugues and forked tongues, K runs the gamut in form/genre, often mixing or shifting pieces into larger works. Neologisms, “petcocks,” as rendered by @caringerel! Also: the way he works two-sides of tenses!

NEW CLUSTER // LIVE NOW AFTER THE LEFTOVERS eds. Erica Fretwell and @AnnaKrauthamer https://t.co/7LMOuzphQ0

Greet the new year with a new Contemporaries cluster, reflecting on one of the great TV dramas of the past decade AFTER THE LEFTOVERS, edited by Erica Fretwell and @AnnaKrauthamer 🚨 Dropping tomorrow, 01.01.2025 🚨

We bring you “Samuel R. Delany’s Improbable Communities,” a consideration the author’s sex-worlds & his aesthetics/politics of (often) public sex. Ed. By Blake Stricklin, and ft. work by @kirinwgrene, Rebekah Sheldon, Y Howard, and Christopher Breu! Link in next tweet 1/8

To finish up the cluster, Blake Stricklin reads Delany’s Through the Valley of the Nest of Spiders and its joyous excess of love, lust, and encounter as radical worldmaking. https://t.co/MAS4KAWbrt 8/8

In Christopher Breu’s “Blueprints for a Red Sexual Revolution,” Delany’s non-nostalgic “sexual commons” of old Times Square offers a geography of contact and the an-arranging politics of sexual encounter. https://t.co/0BM7h0R1Hn 7/8

Y Howard takes up Delany’s work through his “graphic superfluity” of language & image—or “sexcess.” Delany’s mind, & work, perceives “erratic routes of an always in-process account of encounters, reproduced as sexually promiscuous forms of writing.” https://t.co/lUOLduNdb4 6/8

Reading Delany’s metafictional novella Phallos, Rebekah Sheldon offers an understanding of Delany’s speculative fiction and pornographic writing as it pertains to the literary history of the occult. https://t.co/4DnNATNMqh 5/8

Next, in “Delany’s Complex Singularity or, the Astonishing Whole,” @kirinwgrene thinks through “Delany's representations of urban, interclass contact” in TSR,TSB and The Motion of Light in Water. https://t.co/o4JluCIAQa 4/8

In “Filthy,” Blake Sheldon offers “an Introduction to Samuel Delany’s Late Paraliterary Style” https://t.co/N8Rr2TRzPU 3/8
