Kurt Baumeister Interviewed by Matt Norman for J.M.W.W.

Thursday, July 6, 2017 The World of Pax Americana: An Interview with Kurt Baumeister Earlier this summer, I had the chance to interview novelist Kurt Baumeister about his fantastic debut novel Pax Americana. Part lit fiction, part thriller, part revisionist history, it’s one of the most unique books I’ve read in a very long time. Here’s a transcript of our chat, which appeared on JMWW.

Bud Smith - Conversation No. 7

A contents page reveals what’s inside a book, and these contents felt like a metaphor for Amanda as a concept. Even though the book is named Amanda, is it really about Amanda? And when you say the name Amanda, are you conjuring Amanda herself, or are you conjuring a series of images that fit with your own experiences? As McCormick says in the poem “Temperatures too” (64) “Air can only be a metaphor for air.” Things can only be metaphors for what we already know.

Many thanks to Melanie Page over at JMWW for reading and writing a bit about Fondly.

"[Winnette] creates hints of plot and deviates or starts all over again, but then the reader is so wrapped up in narrative it's hard to notice."
