Journal

di Robert Thompson (Autore)

Sandwich Press, 2021

This book is mostly a work of non-fiction, I think. Journal is a brief and selective autobiographical collection of personal events that I had thought were partly stumbling blocks, and partly building blocks in my life. I also believed them to be more or less resolved, until now. The opening chapter, "William" is taken from the most recent of a long-running series of real-life dreams I had from childhood to present day, and the majority of the personal events in this book are factual. The rest I'm still trying to figure out, as the experience of writing Journal has left me wondering where the facts end and the fiction begins. The flood of inspiration that came to me, as I anxiously typed out what felt more like urgent dictation than quiet inspiration, now has me doing research on my family history to try to determine which parts were waking dreams, and which are real. I still have a lot of work to do, and much to learn, to find out who William really is. – Robert Thompson "I'm in bed, staring at the ceiling, just lucid enough to ponder on the thought that I'm 60 years old, and I've been having this same dream as long as I can remember. It's always the same, always ending right when I reach for the doorknob...except this time; all of a sudden, I'm allowed into the room."
