Materialising time in Lawrence, Kansas: a conversation with John Trefry
Inside the Castle is the title of a book I’ll never write that takes place inside the titular castle from Kafka’s book. The book was going to address my perception that the castle was just a place like any other, continuous with the fabric we traverse, and that it had no mythical distinction from the rest of the village where K is loitering around. So in this way it analogised my perspective on books, that they were contemporaneous continuations of the physical environment, and that their contents were meant to be seen as active word objects, not depictions.
