Catherine Barnett on her selections:
Because there are so many texts I love and because of the radical adjustments we’ve had to make in the space-time continuum, I chose to curate a small collection of poems and prose excerpts, each of which takes notice of, or is somehow guided by, time. I’ve included the following poems and excerpts, a collection I’m calling “On the Specious Present and the So-Called Obvious Past.”
From Samuel Beckett's "Texts for Nothing, #3"
Dominique Bechard, "Half a Party"
Gwendolyn Brooks, "An Aspect of Love: Alive in the Fire and Ice"
Guillaume Apollinaire, “There Is” or "Il y a"
John Berger, excerpt from his essay, "Paul Strand"
Saskia Hamilton, “On. On. Stop. Stop.”
Wislawa Szymborska, "May 16, 1973"
Yiyun Li, from "Dear Friend, From My Life I Write to You in Your Life"
Paul Celan, "So many constellations" (trans. Michael Hamburger)
