HOW TO DISAPPEAR AND WHY ~

 



A wonderful read —

I knew how the great Richard Farnsworth left the body

but not quite that it didn't work quite right. Minor doesn't,

out of respect, mention his name. When I read large portions

of the book out loud to Sweetheart, after a few of these sessions

she finally said, "Who is this guy?" Maybe the best line in the

film Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, but women

said it first.

DEREK JARMAN, A FINGER IN THE FISHES MOUTH ~





SIX PAGES I


I dropped six pages of the Sunday newspaper

At the edge of the field

    and the wind blew away

Kings, princesses, whole

Countries, one presidential

    election, and several

    eminent letter writers
