"The world is full of information. What do we do when we get the information, when we have digested the information, what do we do then? Is there a point where ye say, yes, stop, now I shall move on."
James Kelman here offers something of why a book such of this is in front of the public. The State relies on our suffocation, that we cannot hope to learn "the truth." But whether we can or not is beside "the point." Finally, there is no "point." We must grasp the nettle, we assume control and go forward.
Kelman says, "I wanted to convey some of that sensibility with the idea of being in conversation with Noam Chomsky, of being in his presence, a sort of seminar. It is not influence. I don't see it as 'being influenced' by Chomsky. He belongs to the great tradition of teaching, of learning. We learn from him through what he does."
At its core, this exhilarating collection of essays, interviews, and correspondence-spanning the years 1988 through 2018, and reaching back a decade or more previous-is about the simple concept that ideas matter. And not only that ideas matter. But that ideas-in this case, through the lens of two engaged intellectuals-mutate, inform, inspire, and ultimately provide more fuel for thought, the actions that follow such thought, and for carrying on, and doing the work.
June 1946, and left school in 1961. He began work in the printing trade
then moved around, working in various jobs in various places. He was
living in England when he started writing: ramblings, musings, sundry
phantasmagoria. He committed to it and kept at it. In 1969 he met and
married Marie Connors from South Wales. They settled in Glasgow and
still live in the dump, not far from their kids and grandkids. He still
plugs away at the ramblings, musings, politicking and so on, supported
by the same lady.
