Here’s a great story about the origin of the photo used for the Strange Currencies' single cover in 1995 posted by Angie Grass, a longtime friend of Michael’s, who took the photo while on a road trip out West years ago. Many of us at REMHQ had wondered about the story behind the photo & here it is!

The absolute devastation of these last lines:

"If you can hear me there,
if this reaches you,
forgive us,
we did not know who we were."

Now I am almost as wary of books as I am of people. They are also capable of hurting you, pushing you into the limbo of the forgotten ... When there are so many all saying the same thing they can shout you down and make you doubt, not only your memory, but your senses.

I mean ... does it get better than Donald Barthelme's blurb?

Morreu Alice Notley pero alguén que aos seus 76 anos publica un poema que comeza dicindo "May all governments cease and no more men decide for me or / Steal from me I’ll happily kill you" sempre será inmortal.

Business dried up in the late 19th century as the market was flooded with Hudson Bay Point blankets, so Coast Salish people picked up knitting needles. This was the birth of the Cowichan sweater, which combined old Coast Salish weaving practices with European knitting techniques.

Love was a terrible thing. You poisoned it and stabbed at it and knocked it down into the mud and it got up and staggered on, bleeding and muddy and awful. Like - like Rasputin.

If you never heard of Gertrude Trevelyan/G.E. Trevelyan, she was killed in the Blitz and so socially isolated all she left behind were her novels. I read APPIUS AND VIRGINIA for @minorliteratures.bsky.social and found it so good as to be pretty frightening minorliteratures.com/2021/03/08/a...
