Produktinformationen zu „Just So-Me Stories (ePub)“
Just So-me Stories flirts with the hyphen in between "non" and "fiction" in chronicling the darkest moments of Matt Greenfield's young life. "The Edge Behind Me" investigates a Memorial Day weekend/breakdown in the life of an alienated young teacher and would-be rock star known only as "Mr. B" as he interacts with students, parents, the vapid bar/concert scene, and an imaginary interviewer, all while trying to dodge the mystical musical inspiration he carries inside of him. "Drug-Induced Wanderings, Hooped Up on Them Goofballs" is the brief unexpurgated account of Greenfield's subconscious as his conscious self struggles with the side effects of a narcotic cough syrup one Thanksgiving weekend. And "And Found" is the true-but-much-elaborated story of Greenfield's peripatetic cross-country odyssey during his first full summer as a teacher. While the students are away, the teachers will play in these three witty, insightful, and completely un/true explorations of the solipsistic human spirit.
Autoren-Porträt von Matt Greenfield
Further details about the Matt Greenfield of the Second Bush Administration may be gleaned inside the covers of this book. During the Obama Administration (and beyond, most likely), Greenfield prides himself on being the post-1875 Arthur Rimbaud of our times: instead of sojourning to Africa and the East, however, Greenfield is finding fulfillment beyond his prolific late teens/early twenties by keeping his writing confined to written comments about his students' writing, perhaps encouraging a Rimbaud or two of the future (though he hopes not, for their sakes), and finishing up his tenure as enfant terrible theatre impresario of the Oddy Festival. He currently teaches History and Creative Writing on the high school level and lives with his soon-to-be wife Jackie in Beachwood, Ohio.
