The Longcut
English
By (author): Emily Hall
Her mental peregrinations take her through the elements that make up her life: her dull office job where she spends the day moving items into a completed column, insomniac nights in her so-called studio (also known as her tiny apartment), encounters with an enigmatic friend who may or may not know her better than she knows herself. But wherever she looks she finds only more questionswhat is the difference between the world and the photographed world, why do objects wither in different contexts, what is Cambridge bluethat lead her further away from the one thing that really matters.
An extraordinary feat of syntactical dexterity and comic ingenuity, The Longcut is ultimately a story of resistance to easy answers and the place of art and the artist in the world.
