without really giving away anything we give you this paragraph from a cover letter that accompanied the manuscript:
"69,
70
is a novel about a couple who, refusing to be merely one, or two,
struggles to escape the dictate of number. Ignoring the threat of
isolation, they avoid being counted or placed into hierarchies in terms of
gender, nation, or religion, but resort to dialogue, sex, and eccentricity
in order to grow and redefine themselves. In constructing their identities
they shun the ready-made paradigms of the society, risk becoming
unrecognizable and, consequently, anonymous. Instead of accepting
responsibility for space and permanence, they assume responsibility for
time and change. In this process, the stories of the people they meet and
people they try to connect to become their story. Inasmuch as the ideas we
wanted to express in this novel are experimental, 69, 70 is also an
experiment in form, designed to accommodate our particular notions of
character and narration. In the novel we present the idea that, through
communication, freedom of others becomes not a limit, but an extension of
an individual’s freedom. |
