Description
What is in the bag behind the Devils chair? Knowledge of some kind? Surely something a little girl did not know should be left alone. Ive been criticized and sometimes admiredfor what some readers see as my affinity with cruelty, both in my depictions of it and my supposed infliction of it on characters.In The Devils Treasureaptly subtitled A Book of Stories and Dreamsthe iconic author Mary Gaitskill has created a chimerical hybrid of fiction, memoir, essay, criticism, and visual art that transcends categorization. This collage of four novels (one a work in progress), interspersed with and thematically linked by a single short story, then woven together with the authors commentary, is a kind of directors cut revealing the personal and societal forces that inform each individual piece of work, an ongoing, passionate exploration of core human emotions and experience, the ideally, sometimes quixotically high and grossly, confusedly low. With the stylistic daring and preternatural acuity that has made her one of Americas most original writers, Gaitskill has created a layered vision of modern life that simultaneously blends the huge prehistoric creatures that swim at the bottom of our collective ocean with a family that picnics on the beach while a podcast natters about politics and a perhaps dangerously curious child explores the lapping waves.
