03/14/06 Braverman on Graywolf "In Austin, at the AWP, I "denounced" Graywolf for refusing the ending, the epiphany of my "accidental memoir". Like a JT Leroy hoax in reverse, I was unilaterally excluded from my memoir. But when asked to teach or read from it, i will honor all firm and pending college readings and master classes. Because I know precisely how I deconstructed Frantic Transmissions and reassembled it, it's fresh to dissect, I enjoy it. while I have repudiated my connection to GW press, the book holds interest to me in its literary wildly experimental construction, in Jewish and gender studies issues it contains, it's disguized passages of pure poetry, chanting chorus, the Marilyn Monroe interview as a cultural history. The subtext of this book is of most interest as is the Random House 5th definition of "censorship" which describes the final aesthetic of this book." 03/12/06 The news from Austin on Braverman's Very Public Break with Graywolf Press 03/08/06 The Archive is looking for vintage Braverman footage: video, photographs, recordings of any sort.
