Abstract
-
en_US
I had experienced Edson in his What a Man Can See from 1969. See my comments there. Here earlier he apparently does his own art work. I am still at a loss as to how to comprehend most of the work here. Several items seem to approach being stories, and so to qualify as fables. Stew (15) is a delightful piece about a woman who falls into a pot. Her husband ends up jumping in saying I can get in stew too. The Courtship (23) evokes a man's hopes of appearing and being noticed and accepted by the person who looks afar from her window. Windows, doors, and walls recur frequently in this work.
