This is not the book

This is not the book is a prose poem, or a piece of art writing, or a hybrid text or maybe it is a type of auto-fiction? It is concerned with the act of writing, with memory and with neurodiversity. It is interested in chance and coincidence, and how the various interpretations of signs and symbols can create important inner worlds. I write about my life, though I tend not to write about events, but about the shadows that those events cast. Within this text time expands and contracts. Past, present and future are fluid. The body of the text is the body of the writer. This is not the book.
