The Islanders
“I am here with my parents. I have just returned from university on Semell where I gained a First Class Honours degree in Island Literature.
I wish to inform you that during my three years at the university we were given many modern novels to study, and amongst them was your book Terminality. I was impressed by this novel and wanted to know a lot more about the other books you might have written, who you were, and so on. I spent a great deal of time trying to track down some other of your books,... but unfortunately not all were available on Semell. I managed in the end to borrow three more titles, all of them apparently from your early career.
Let me tell you that I think they were very good. This led me to decide to specialize in your work, and my dissertation was on the subject of ‘literary stasis’, a phrase borrowed, of course, from your novel The Tour of Circles. I called my dissertation ‘The Enigma of Staying: Immobilization and the Static Values of Chaster Kammeston’.
I know you must be busy and the last thing I want to do is interrupt your writing, but I do have a simple question I should like you to answer.MoreLess
