Overview

“A partial content shapes, funnels” describes how narrative operates in Sound Remains. As if to say what remains of experience is the sound at the edge of words and forms. Narrative becomes funneled through vibrant paratactic distances — vibrant because they “extend the inexpressible”.

Author Biography

Born in Montana, spending his formative years in Los Angeles and San Diego, John Tritica has lived in Albuquerque for decades. He is a founding member of L'Edge and worked closely with Mary Rising Higgins and Gene Frumkin for more than twenty years. A teacher by profession, he studied at University of California, San Diego; Miami University; University of New Mexico; and Lund University in Sweden, where he became friends with Niklas Törnlund. John has translated Törnlund in a volume called All Things Measure Time (Landlocked Press, 1992). Published widely in many journals, his books include How Rain Records Its Alphabet (La Alameda Press,1998) and Sound Remains (Chax Press,2008). Together with his family, John lives in the city of Albuquerque, where they cultivate a garden.
