"ce qu'on appelle je, moi, c'est seulement un mobile" Cahiers I Simone Weil "what we call I, me, is a moving thing"

Five women: Simone Weil, MHB (my mother), La Pasionaria (the Spanish Civil War leader), Louise Michele (the anarchist) and the Singer: their own words and the words spoken about them make this work.

"The words voices images and sounds of Joanna Gunderson's experimental plays ripploe over mind and body like a fugue" from a review of Night four plays Patricia Laurence, Review of Contemporary Fiction

"Even in a room without windows, I know the direction I face" Untitled 10

"I am trying to decide which of his eyes to settle on because each pupil looks in a different direction. First I look at the close one, while the further, the left, shyly stays in one corner of the socket, staring at the doors across from us which are opening and closing" Untitled 6
Fascinating pieces. Joanna Gunderson

Not that much looking happens like this. This is the kind of looking and listening that we want to do. David Levi Strauss

Author of Voies de l'imagination proustienne published by Librairie A.G. Nizet in 1980 as well as numerous articles and essays on literature, art and music. The Septet: Proust's Wager was read before the Proust Society at the Mercantile Library, New York on April 13,2006

Proust has thrown his starry constellation of words into the darkness. Remembrance of Things Past is Proust's toss of the dice, his wager on transcendence p.21

Beautifully, elegantly written. It seems that some of the very best commentaries come in small packages… this essay, Beckett’s Proust and Maurice Blanchot’s The Experience of Proust.

...sentences is an amazing book. it's about writing; it also is writing, of many kinds, some of them irresistibly fascinating. The breath of her mind wraps us from the start in a whirl of fresh and freshening air. Harry Mathews
I was immediately struck and delighted by the originality and fearlessness of this work. Joanna Gunderson

Rodgers has given us a work of earnest completeness. Anna Wainwright
 

There is no need for the technique of "stream of consciousness" in this writing, which stands as a bold co-option of the reader's mind. Bruce Benderson
Gunderson's plays take language to a breaking point, and then reassemble it in ways that are both interpretive and generative. Johannah Rodgers

review by Patricia Laurence,
The Review of Contemporary Fiction
 

...is about people in a time of revolution. It was inspired by a photo of a large family seen at the Museum of Modern Art “taken from no particular place at no particular time”.
Fragments of the underground films of the sixties as well as the films of the Russian revolution run through it. The book was written in 1969.
