She squeezed and opened her left fist. The small pill coloured her palm pink. She put the tip of her right forefinger on the pill, swivelling it in the palm of her hand. Ali entered the living room adjoining the kitchen. “Where've you put the bank passbook?” he called out. Anis clenched her left hand. “Where?” he asked again. “I don't have it.” “Find it,” Ali said and walked back to the bedroom. Anis threw the pill in the trash basket and washed her hands. She walked out of the kitchen to the living room and placed on her forehead, tying it tightly at the back, a headscarf that was hanging on the hook next to the apartment’s door. The headscarf was there for her to cover her head whenever she opened the door, so that Ali made sure no man would see his wife’s hair. Lately, she had been using the scarf to squeeze her head when it ached. She paused, went back to the kitchen, bent over and took the watering can from near the fridge. Anis entered the balcony from the kitchen and watered the flower pots. Ali entered the living room wearing a suit. “Where are you?” he asked. Scanning the room, he noticed a small object in the lilacs. Ali went to the coffee table and lifted the plastic toy of a falcon which had landed in the plant. “Falcons everywhere in this apartment!” he murmured. The balcony door opened. “Headache again?” He threw the toy on the sofa and frowned. She tossed the empty watering can near the table and sat down at the computer in the living room. 7 7 Ali came closer and looked at the screen. Anis was writing a computer program in C++. He went to the kitchen, lifted the glass that was on the kitchen table, and drank the water in it. From the corner of his eye he watched Anis type rapidly. “Dirty dishes! Dirty dishes everywhere,” he said, slamming down the glass in the sink. Anis remained hunched at the monitor. “Didn't I tell you to find it?” She did not answer. “I am talking to you,” he yelled, walking towards her. “I said I didn't know,” she replied. “What do you know then? Huh?” He took the computer’s mouse and smacked it on the desk. “Who knows where anything is in this place?” Her eyes were fixed on the keyboard, hand on mouth. “You are the one who always has that bank pass thing, sir,” Anis said under her breath. Ali walked fast to the bedroom and took his bag out of the closet. The booklet was inside. He walked to the mirror and combed his hair. Ali raised a thick black eyebrow, inclined his body to the right and lifted his chin. He was patting his beard when he noticed a drawing above the mirror. It was a cat looking at a mirror, seeing a lion in its reflection. Ali removed it, tore it into pieces and put them in the pocket of his coat. He heard a knock on the apartment door, perfumed himself, glanced again in the mirror and walked out of the room. His friend Esi was at the door. Anis had untied the scarf to have it cover her hair and was greeting the man. She had almost closed the door after them when Ali called back to her, “Hey!” He put the pieces of the drawing in her palm and said, “Gimme your cell. Mine’s dead.” 8 8 Anis stared down at her palm as Ali pushed the door and entered the room, standing close beside her. “I’m expecting a phone call,” she said, raising her head. Ali went to the small tea table next to the sofa and picked up her cell. Anis stared at his footprints on the floor. *** After they left the bank, Esi and Ali stopped in front of a juice shop. Ali ordered two glasses of cantaloupe juice and looked at the street.

  • In the Light of What We Know | GRANTA
    4/14/2015 In the Light of What We Know | GRANTA In the Light of What We Know Zia Haider Rahman (http://granta.com/search/Zia+Haider+Rahman/) http://granta.com/in­the­light­of­what­we­know/ 1/38 4/14/2015 In the Light of What We Know | GRANTA Our concern with history, so Hilary’s thesis ran, is a concern with pre-formed images already imprinted on our brains, images at which we keep staring while the truth lies elsewhere, away from it all, somewhere as yet undiscovered. – W. G. Sebald, Austerlitz In the early hours of one September morning in 2008, there appeared on the doorstep of our home in South Kensington a brown-skinned man, haggard and gaunt, the ridges of his cheekbones set above an unkempt beard. He was in his late forties or early fifties, I thought, and stood at six foot or so, about an inch shorter than me. He wore a Berghaus jacket whose Velcro straps hung about unclasped and whose sleeves stopped short of his wrists, revealing a strip of paler skin above his right hand where he might once have worn a watch. His weathered hiking boots http://granta.com/in­the­light­of­what­we­know/ 2/38 4/14/2015 In the Light of What We Know | GRANTA were fastened with unmatching laces, and from the bulging pockets of his cargo pants the edges of unidentifiable objects peeked out. He wore a small backpack, and a canvas duffel bag rested on one end against the doorway. The man appeared to be in a state of some agitation, speaking, as he was, not incoherently but with a strident earnestness and evidently without regard for introductions, as if he were resuming a broken conversation.

  • AMERICAN LITERARY MINIMALISM by ROBERT CHARLES
    AMERICAN LITERARY MINIMALISM by ROBERT CHARLES CLARK (Under the Direction of James Nagel) ABSTRACT American Literary Minimalism stands as an important yet misunderstood stylistic movement. It is an extension of aesthetics established by a diverse group of authors active in the late-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries that includes Amy Lowell, William Carlos Williams, and Ezra Pound. Works within the tradition reflect several qualities: the prose is “spare” and “clean”; important plot details are often omitted or left out; practitioners tend to excise material during the editing process; and stories tend to be about “common people” as opposed to the powerful and aristocratic. While these descriptors and the many others that have been posited over the years are in some ways helpful, the mode remains poorly defined. The core idea that differentiates American Minimalism from other movements is that prose and poetry should be extremely efficient, allusive, and implicative. The language in this type of fiction tends to be simple and direct. Narrators do not often use ornate adjectives and rarely offer effusive descriptions of scenery or extensive detail about characters’ backgrounds. Because authors tend to use few words, each is invested with a heightened sense of interpretive significance. Allusion and implication by omission are often employed as a means to compensate for limited exposition, to add depth to stories that on the surface may seem superficial or incomplete. Despite being scattered among eleven decades, American Minimalists share a common aesthetic. They were not so much enamored with the idea that “less is more” but that it is possible to write compact prose that still achieves depth of setting, characterization, and plot without including long passages of exposition.

Western Michigan University, 1999 Committee Chair: Brock Clarke, Ph.D. The Big Baby Crime Spree and Other Delusions: Short Stories Darrin Doyle Dissertation Abstract My creative work focuses on the notion of belief – not religious belief, necessarily, but belief (mistaken or not) in our ability to control the circumstances that shape us: as Wallace Stevens wrote, “It is the belief and not the god that counts.” Thematically, my works feature the following characteristics: elements of the fantastic; dark humor; and working-class protagonists who seek to palliate some unnamable dissatisfaction in their lives and who seek this correction through obsessive behavior that might be either wonderfully healing or terribly misguided – the results are in the eye of the beholder. The tensions between the fantastic and the realistic, between blue-collar and academic concerns, between knowing and not-knowing, between what we internally perceive and the external truth – unresolved oppositions like these are what create the lasting effects of literature, and they are what I strive to cultivate in my writing.

  • The Gates of Hell Shall Not Prevail
    - THE GATES OF HELL SHALL NOT PREVAIL - ii FOREWORD In 1983 Peter and Rebekah Laue self-published a book titled: The Wood Blossom – A Search for Sanity in an Insensitive World. At that time 1,500 copies were printed and distributed over the next few years until the supply was exhausted. Their friend Mary Scott read one of the ten manuscripts that were circulated in hopes of finding a publisher who would risk publishing a book by an unknown author. No publisher came forward at that time. Mary Scott offered to sell her stocks so that the book could be published as soon as possible. Peter and Rebekah gratefully accepted the offer. Mary loves to give books she considers valuable as Christmas presents and chose to give one hundred copies to friends and family beginning with Christmas of 1983. FRONT & BACK COVERS OF THE FIRST EDITION The above title and cover is certainly a far cry from the new title but very appropriate as seen from the vantage point of 25 years later. The fact that the writer is now living in a beautiful log cabin on Lake Pagosa with his handmaiden Rebekah and is not incarcerated in a prison or mental institution is only by God’s grace. The fact that he did not succumb to voices and iii suggestions that were from the pit of hell, is a matter of God’s grace. The fact that he is not subdued by medication to corral the extremes in his personality is a matter of God’s grace. The fact that the mortgage on Peter and Rebekah’s home was paid off seventeen years ahead of schedule is a matter of God’s grace.
