"SSES' 'SSES" "SSEY' Chaulky White
__ "SSES' 'SSES" "SSEY' is based on Kevin White's MFA thesis ("SSES' 'SSES") in which he recapitulated Joyce's Ulysses' recapitulation of Homer's Odyssey one step further to a trip he took across Asia in search of our father (who committed suicide a few years before)."SSES' 'SSES" "SSEY' takes his recapitulation 1 step further, folding in his journals, unpublished stories + artwork he made before himself dying of a drug overdose."SSES' 'SSES" "SSEY' is also a literary work that reflexively interrogates the very transcription processes used to produce/copy it, mobilizing reflexive loops between original imagined intent + editorial deterritorialization ... a ?gift of tongues rendering visible not the lay sense but the first entelechy, the structural rhythm?—as Stephen Dedalus says in Ulysses.
