“The narrative about the world has replaced the world itself”

“I was always aware that I am a person in the west living in acute privilege compared with the rest of the world, and that there is an excess of information that creates mental suffering. It is almost as if it is created in order to counterbalance the luxury. […] In the old days, a brain was freed by education and information. Now this process has turned on itself. And one must select from all the words the ones that are openings.”

— Fanny Howe, in a radio interview with Leonard Schwartz that aired on Cross-Cultural Poetics (KAOS, 89.3 FM Olympia) where she was discussing her book "The Wedding Dress: Meditations on Word and Life." (Jacket Magazine, October 2005.)
