Chuck Carlise Poetry Reading and Book Signing
Wednesday September 13, 2023 7:00pm - 8:00pm EDT
IN ONE VERSION OF THE STORY is a lyric exploration of the ways human beings confront desire, loss and absence by creating stories. It begins with from the French folk legend of “l’Inconnue de la Seine”—the unidentified young woman who drowned herself in Paris in the 1880s, and whose (unauthorized) death mask was eventually cast as the face of Resusci-Anne CPR training dummies—but eventually the book encompasses a chronicle of personal loss, a history of photography, a study of the mechanics of breathing, and a solo climb to the rim of a Mediterranean volcano. Ultimately, it is story-making itself which is interrogated, however the book seeks not to recreate narratives, but rather to understand why they matter—why and how we give them the meaning that we do.
