<p class="bookdesc">As this volume shows, Los Angeles novels changed
greatly beginning in the 1960s as the population of the city became
multi-national. For decades, Latino/as have written critical novels of
resistance about LA, and, in the 1970s, their novels came of age while
influenced by South American magical realism. The book also highlights
that African-Americans have authored brilliant Los Angeles fiction for a
number of years, while women transformed novels dealing with Hollywood,
detectives, and science fiction. In addition, LGBTQ writers—both Anglos
and Chicano/as—have created innovative works, while men’s novels that
explored 20th century class conflicts have been recently rediscovered.</p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><p class="bookdesc"></p><hr /> </div>

'<br />
On March 18, 2005, on this blog I published "Top 40 Novels of Los Angeles." If you grew up as a teenager I like did in L.A., the radio would have Top 40 rock 'n roll songs. Of course, the Los Angeles has had many fine novelists with strong voices published in the last 17 years.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Now I
am pulling together an Edited Collection of essays called <i>The Many Voices of
the Los Angeles Novel</i> and I would like to invite you to consider submitting
one or more chapters.</span><br />

<i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Los
Angeles novels began with Helen Hunt Jackson’s 1888 novel Ramona on persecution
of Native Americans. Latino/as, African-Americans, and Asian-Americans have
written brilliant Los Angeles novels for decades. Women transformed the
Hollywood, detective, and science fiction novels. Gay writers have refashioned
detective novels while men’s novels show 20th century class conflicts.</span></i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></div>

Stein was an oral historian of Los Angeles. She has published five books of

Review o<i>f </i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">A Higher Form of Politics:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Rise of a Poetry Scene, Los Angeles,
1950-1990. </i>Sophie Rachmuhl. Otis Books Seismicity Editions, 2015.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>249 pp. $12.95 (included is CD of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Innerscapes Ten Portraits of Los Angeles
poets </i>A Film by Sophie Rachmuhl).</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 92.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"> </span>
</div>
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"> Rachmuhl in her book constantly discusses what is LA poetry?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>To answer that question, she combines Los Angeles historian Mike Davis,
literary history, and the French sociologist Bourdieu to examine how poets can
change a city’s culture through “a higher form of politics.” She uses Mike
Davis’s argument in <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">City of Quartz </i>that three
times intellectuals changed Los Angeles’s culture: <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(1.)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>the “Boosters,” intellectuals at the turn of the 20<sup>th</sup>century working
for developers to sell the city to tourists; 2.) the 1930s “debunkers” such <span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">as </span>historian Carey McWilliams who criticized the Boosters’
mythology of fun in the sun; and <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>3.)
the “Communards,” the <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>1950s small groups of avant-garde artists such as Ornette
Coleman’s free jazz group.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Rachmuhl labels three groups
of L.A. poets communards:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Black Arts poets in the 1960s; Chicano poets
in the 1980s; and Venice poets of the 1950s.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"> </span>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 92.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">In
describing Black Arts poets, the author fortunately describes the larger context
of the1965 Watts Rebellion against an intensely segregated city and then the
Watts Writers Workshop. One wishes she’d add a
bit more about Southcentral’s tradition of great jazz musicians—Eric Dolphy,
Charlie Mingus, Buddy Collette, Frank Morgan etc. Rachmuhl writes excellent portraits of three leading Black Arts poets:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Kamau Daaood, master poet whose work
celebrates LA’s wonderful black jazz artists or often is a poetry/jazz
collaboration; Father Amde of the Watts Prophets, whose record <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Rapping Black in a White World </i>was a
forerunner of rap; and Wanda Coleman, whose autobiographical poems about growing
up in Watts or being a black single mother/worker/poet have searing honesty. Rachmuhl uses Bourdieu's insights that the Black Arts poets grew an audience and a network of poetry organizers through their many performances across town--also gaining
financial support and legitimacy. After Quincy Troup in 1968 edited the anthology <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Watts
Poets: A Book of New Poetry and Essay</i> in bookstores<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">, they had developed a distribution network and recognition as the voice of black Los Angeles by the late 1970s.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 92.5pt;">
<br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Rachmuhl also has a wonderful section on the 1980s Chicano/poets in L.A who produced two literary magazines and an anthology that
developed an Chicano audience. She has a fine analysis of Victor
Valle’s brilliant poem “Cuidad of Los Angeles” which rewrites the city’s
history from the viewpoint of a Chicano. Her excellent portrait of Manual (Manazar)
Gamboa describes how as head of Beyond Baroque, he brilliantly
edited Los Angeles first multi-racial magazine <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Obras</i>, but was soon fired. Rachmuhl describes his terrific autobiographical
poetry and his pioneering writing workshops in the
prisons that<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";"> were continued decades later. </span></span></span>The book also ably discusses Marisela Norte’s marvelo<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">u</span>s poetry
as well as <span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">her</span> participation in the unique urban avant-garde Chicano scene
in East LA including poets and visual artists. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 92.5pt;">
<br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Rachmuhl’s unfortunately chooses the 1950s Venice Beat as her third group of communards. She fails to recognize Venice beats were influential as rebel
symbols after Larry Lipton's book <i>Holy Barbarians </i>gave them 10 minutes of fame. </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Of the Venice beats, only Stuart Perkoff published a book during the 1950s. </span> Rachmuhl ignores the far more important 1950s poets who
were in the Tom McGrath group. Both McGrath and Don Gordon had gotten fired in the 1950s anti-Communist witch hunt, but McGrath and his poet friends went on to form a poetry group of communards. </span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 92.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">While Venice Beats scarcely
published during the 1950s, the poets' group centered around Tom McGrath </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">started <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">California Quarterly</i> and encouraged young poets to start <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Coastlines</i>—the two most important 1950s magazines
publishing poetry. These poets also published many books.</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Edwin Rolfe's poetry on the Spanish Civil War made him the major U.S.
poet to write about the Spanish Civil War, and he wrote hard-hitting
anti-McCarthy poems. After McGrath put out four books in the 1940s,
he wrote in L.A. much of his wonderful epic <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Letter
to an Imaginary Friend </i>using a Whitman-like voice to describe how Americans survived hard times with grace. A young rebel Jewish working woman, Naomi Replansky made a
splash with her first book of poetry of a 1950s free woman in <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Ring Song</i> (1952) with Scribners. Don
Gordon, the only one to grow up in LA, wrote movingly about World War II carnage
in his 1940s book and in his book <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Displaced
Persons </i>(1958)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>has themes apparent
in his titles:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>“Nobody Hears You,” “The
Investigation,” “The Silent,” “The Dissenter,” “The Deportee,” “In the Gaunt
Hour.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 92.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">For the 1980s Rachmul’s
book unfortunately omits to follow the multi-racial
communards joining together to create a network across L.A. and Orange County. Manazar’s firing from Beyond Baroque, which had held the key reading series in Venice in the 1970s, spurred the Old Venice Jail group (Lynne Bronstein, Israel Halpern, Lisa Braudy, and Jennifer Machiarella) to start a rival multi-racial literary series. Other series started: Manazar’s
Galeria Ocaso in Silverlake, Coleman/Straus’s regular poetry show and my 6-hour multi-racial poetry/music show on KPFK radio, and the Barragans' East
LA’s Café Cultural. I got multi-racial poetry published as an editor of Orange County's <i>Electrum</i> magazine. Then I was editor to John Crawford's West End Press helping him create L.A.'s first multi-racial press that published Michelle Clinton, Sesshu Foster, and Naomi Quinonez. West
End Press’s anthology <i>Invocation LA:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Urban Multi-Cultural Poets </i>(1989) grew out of this decade’s work. By the end of the 1980s the communard groups had worked together to put out multi-racial reading series and publishing across Los Angeles and Orange Counties.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 92.5pt;">
<br /></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Rachmuhl also omits important Asian, Native American, and women poets who were integral to L.A.’s 1980s poetry and who got academic recognition or won national prizes or recognition. Japanese-American Garrett Hongo grew up in Los
Angeles, publishing three books of poetry of stunning poetry:<i> The Buddha Bandits down Highway 99</i>
(1978),<i> Yellow Light </i>(1980), and T<i>he River of Heaven</i></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"> (1988), which
was a Lamont Poetry Selection.<span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;"> Native American William Oandasan, a Yuki Indian from Round Valley in
Northern California, published seven poetry books guiding us into
Indian country. <span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">He</span> edited the magazine<i> A</i>,
a pioneering poetry magazine of Native poets, worked as
an editor at the Native American Studies Center at UCLA, and organized at UCLA a
conference of Native American poets in 1984<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">. </span> Nationally
multi-racial poets in the Before Columbus Book Foundation had annual poetry awards, giving awards to William Oandasan’s <i>Round
Valley Songs</i> and <i>Invocation LA:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Urban Multi-Cultural Poets.</i> </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">In the books’ section on L.A. women poets Rachmuhl
omits <span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">three women</span> who did wonderful work. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Ann Stanford, a California State Northridge
professor, published the path breaking<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"> Women
Poets in English</i> (1973), an anthology of 1000 years of poetry as well as
another book on Anne Bradstreet, first poet of the American colonies. Stanford was
also a fine poet publishing eigh<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">t </span>poetry collections of poetry as well as a
teacher of many young poets. Another omitted poet/professor Mitsuye Yamada
focused her poetry on her wartime internment in two brilliant books of
poetry:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Camp Notes and Other Poems</i> (1976) and <i>Desert Run: Poems and
stories</i><span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;"> (1989). The third omitted
poet Sharon Doubiago, born and educated in L.A., wrote her epic poem
on love in the time of genocide <i>Hard Country</i> (1982). In this work Dubiago wrote
about her Southern California childhood and adolescence. <span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">She included</span> for the
first time in poetry the area’s history including Native history and <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_GoBack"></a>basing her poem on Helen Hunt Jackson’s <i>Ramona</i>, the
first novel written about Southern California.

later L.A multi-racial literature which has kept on growing decade after decade to the present day: the first two Los Angeles Poet Laureats were feminist Eloise Klein Healy and then Luis Rodriguez.</span></span></span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Despite these omissions, Rachmuhl’s book is extremely
valuable for showing how a French sociologist Bourdieu and Los Angeles historian
Mike Davis can help us understand how poetry is “a higher form of politics.” </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Future literary historians in focusing
on more of L.A.neglected poets will certainly build on Rachmul’s work.</span></div>

election, six million voters had been counted in California, but 2.5 million
hadn’t been counted. Though pre-vote surveys showed Sanders only very narrowly
behind Clinton right before voting day, the June 7 election count had Sanders 43%
and Clinton 56% <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(Sanders received
483,000 less votes than Clinton). <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>By law
counties in California don’t have to finish their vote counting until July 8,
2016. Vote counting went slowly through June 16 when 1.9 million ballots still haven’t
been counted (Truthdig). California votes were nullified. </span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt;"></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">According to the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">San Jose Mercury News</i> in the 2012
primary election 31% of registered voters voted in California (2/3 of the
states have more people voting), so the Democratic legislature in January 2016
changed the voting registration procedure making it easier and 650,000 <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>people registered spring 2016, the largest increase
in people 18-29.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The new law also allows
people to be automatically registered when they visit the Department of Motor
Vehicles, potentially adding up to 6.6 million new voters:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>the legislature reasoned easier
registration, problem solved. Though the state’s voting procedures and different
ballots are quite complicated, a few Sanders’ supporters were the only people who
tried to do any education on how to vote for new voters before election day.</span></div>
June 6, 2016, the day before five states including California voted, the
Associated Press and NBC <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>“News” both
announced that Hillary Clinton had won the nomination based on a poll of super
delegates, who don’t vote officially until July 25--a 100% false report. Mindy
Romero, director of the UC Berkeley California Civil Engagement Project
believes the AP report lowered turnout as many voters stayed home on Election
Day—some Sanders voters stayed home.<br />
<br />
A just released Harvard study by Professor T. Patterson and the Shorenstein
Center on Media, Public Policy, and Politics, after studying eight cable news
networks and newspapers, said, “The perception of the Clinton vs. Sanders race
created by the media’s earliest coverage generated an aura of inevitability for
Hillary Clinton and encouraged a dismissive attitude toward Sanders despite his
early mega-rallies on the West Coast and huge advantage with small-dollar
donations.” The Harvard study vindicated Bernie supporters that the mass media
gave more coverage to Clinton “for the purpose of driving ad revenue and clicks
rather than for the purpose of informing the public.”<br />

Now</span></i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> on June 9, 2016, had Sanders
consultant Larry Cohen say Sanders delegates at the Democratic Convention will
criticize the problems in voting and will try to abolish the super delegate
system. Super delegates are 15 % of the delegates whom voters don’t elect. The
party elite, choosing super delegates from either other party elites or paid lobbyists
who fund campaigns, instituted the super delegate system to end the voter
insurgencies of the late 1960s and 1970s. Cohen argues corporations/Wall Street
control the Democratic Party through the use of super delegates and their
money, describing how in the state of Washington Sanders won with 72% of the
vote but didn’t get one super delegate. </span></div>

anecdotes of chaotic voting. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Los Angeles Times</i> reported June 14,
2016, that LA County Supervisors heard dozens of complaints from voters and poll
workers about “broken voting machines, names missing from voter rosters, and
polling stations that ran out of ballots.” <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Marcia Martin, polling station inspector, said
many voters were “recorded as vote-by-mail or never received their ballots,
people complained their names didn’t appear on the rolls, and voters were
registered with a party they hadn’t signed up for.” <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Many of those complaining were first-time
voters. Sanders voters complained they weren’t given ballots that allowed them
to vote in the Democratic primary. Many poll workers were poorly trained.</span></div>

acknowledged problems caused by “the surge in new voters and existing voters
switching party preference …,” and he blamed other problems on a too-complex
voting system which was “challenging for voters, cumbersome for poll workers,
and difficult to administer.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Logan
added that L.A. country is overhauling its voting machine system, “eventually
replac[ing] ink-based balloting with touch-screen machines.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If Los Angeles or any other county in the
state were serious about vote counting, they’d first train poll workers better
and then just hire a great number of short-term workers to count quickly before,
on, and just after election day.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Further, California voters are 48%
Democrats, 27% Republicans, and 23% independents or 4.6 million independents,
many of which are Sander’s voters and/ or young first-time voters who lean to
Sanders. Democratic leaders know that about 48% reliably vote Democratic each election.
Retiring U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer, a pillar of the state’s Democratic elite,
had a bad feud with Sanders’ supporters stemming from her being booed by them

the same flaws as L.A. voters had complained), but no systematic study has been
made and no lawsuit has been filed. If the state’s voting system breaks down
with 650,000 new voters, how could it handle 6 million new voters? Though it’s
commendable to make voter registration easier, the state needs to simplify its
cumbersome voting procedures, get updated machines that also have paper ballots,
get enough trained poll workers for the next election, and educate new voters
before election day. Senator Senders on CBS news has endorsed open primaries, same
day registration, and enough trained staff to get the votes counted quickly.</span></div>

I’d like to thank Diane Lefer, for inviting me to take part in the Writing Process blog tour, where I’m asked by a writer, Diane in my case, to answer four questions about how and why I write, and then I ask other writers to continue writing on their blogs about their process:
I’ve just enjoyed reading two of Diane Lefer wonderful novels—<i>Nobody Wakes Up Pretty</i> and <i>The Fiery Alphabet</i>—as well as her award-winning short story collection California Transit Lefer is one of the few fiction writers in the U.S. capturing our contemporary writing, and her work is tremendously exciting to read. After reading Nobody Wakes Up Pretty about the gentrification of a neighborhood the heroine is living in the upper west side of Manhattan, I became aware how exiled I feel when my Hollywood neighborhood is undergoing gentrification and was inspired to write a long poem. Diane blogs: http://dianelefer.wordpress.com/
1) <b><i>What am I working on?<b></b></i></b>
I just finished a novel about a young woman going to Berkeley in the 1960s showing her transformations from shy, bookish girl to getting arrested in a civil rights sit-in, going to jail. and falling in love. The novel is about first time falling in love during the Vietnam War and also getting pregnant when abortion was illegal. The novel is about transformations, love, politics—and the death of the first friend your age.
I also just finished my sixth book of poetry about my brother and mother’s lives as well as my brother’s fourteen year struggle with Parkinson’s and my mother’s growing frailty in her eighties. The poems talk about how my brother is a great father despite his disease and how a family survives the ineptitude of a failing health care system.
I’ve written 1/3 of a seventh book of poetry about life and love in 2013-2014 when my college get shot up, when grifters try high technological electronic stealing of one’s identity, and when one can feel exiled when living in a neighborhood undergoing rapid gentrification. I’ve written my first sonnet, a love sonnet.
<b>2) How does my work differ from others of its genre?
<i></i></b>
Many 1960s novels were written in the 1960s or soon after, but mine is written many decades later, so is more concerned with love than with anger. I also write in 3rd person, not first person, and accept my young naïve heroine does make mistakes but learns from her mistakes. Though she has a central conflict with her father, sometimes he is more right than she is. I grew up with a grandmother who loved Tolstoy and Dickens, she taught me to love them too. Though I have, of course, been influenced by early 20th century modernism, I am also inspired by the 19th century novelists like Tolstoy and Dickens who combine personal stories with writing about history or politics.
My fifth and sixth books of poetry show the influence of my Whitman and Neruda as I wrote long poems. Most poets these days seems to write short lyrics, but I often have written longer narrative poems often in a chronological sequence as the whole book of poetry is a story in verse in my last three books. My fifth book of poems <i>What Were They Like</i> was inspired by Whitman’s Civil War poetry in “Drum Taps” poems, and I’m in the small minority of U.S. poets to write about the wars of the 21st century.
While most poets in the U.S. just write personal lyric poetry, my new poems are not just personal lyrics but try to capture what life is like in 2014 exploring how the personal life is impacted by larger impersonal economic/technological structures.
<b>3. Why do I write what I do?<i></i></b>
Often to celebrate the life of a person I loved. My first book of poetry was written after my grandmother’s death to celebrate her life and the lives of her remarkable generation of immigrants’ right before World War I. Carl Sandberg asked, “Who do you owe your freedom?” Often the poems try to answer that question, as I certainly owe my freedom to my grandparents, and I wish to rescue their lives from clichés and obscurity. As for the novel, I always wanted to write about the 1960s in order to celebrate the community I felt at Berkeley in the 1960s and which I miss now. Also I was fascinated by dance for decades, and I enjoyed having the heroine develop into a serious dancer/choreographer exploring a path I did not take.
From my first book of poetry I’ve been concerned with Camus’s exhortation to neither be a victim nor an executioner (or a silent partner to an executioner). Also I have been inspired by Hannah Arendt’s ideas in Eichmann in Jerusalem that even average humans in evil times can act in ways to recreate a moral world and that the poems attempt to recreate that moral world. I think poetry as well as other arts like jazz or dance can create utopian possibilities to counterpoint to our reality and to imagine a free space in which to live.
<b>4) How does your writing process work?<i></i></b>
Writing a novel is different than writing a book of poetry. When I’m teaching, and I have been teaching either part-time or full-time the last 24 years, I can write poems in spurts in the odd free hours during the week. Or I’d blogged every Friday morning during the years 2004-2007. Only when I’m pulling the book of poetry together do I make myself work day after day until I’m done. If I am not teaching and am working on a novel, I start work at 9 am, take a short break, then work until lunch, take a lunch break, then work until about 3:00. I like to stay with the characters in the novel almost as if I was living with them day after day. After I finish the manuscript—whether of poetry or fiction—I like to put it away for a while and do something else—chores, see people—totally forgetting about the writing, so when I go back I to the manuscript I can see the writing with new eyes.

On March 3, 2014, Vicki Nikolaidis will participate on the Writing Process Blog tour.<i></i></b>
Vicki Nikolaidis grew up in Iowa but when she realized there were so many warmer places to live in the world, she started traveling. Now she lives on Crete, her dream of an island paradise. After studying writing in Crete, she recently submitted a novella titled Path to Transcendence to The <i>Malahat Review</i> 2014 Novella contest. The novella is the first in a series of three about two characters who have intersecting lives although one lives in the contemporary world and one is from the ancient Mediterranean world. She describes “using the novellas to invent an unknown ancient religion based on creation, not destruction.” She will be participating in Writing Process Blog Tour on March 3 on her blog on Red Room:

On March 10, 2014, poet Lyle Daggett will participate on the Writing Process Blog tour.<i></i></b>
Lyle Daggett has been writing poems for 45 years. He is the author of seven books of poems, most recently <i>All Through the Night: New and Selected Poems </i>(published 2013 by Red Dragonfly Press). His poetry is influenced by Whitman, Neruda, and Tom McGrath, and he is one of the few U.S. poets who can write a brilliant long Whitmanesque poem. He has worked for a living mostly sitting in cubicles, talking on the phone and typing on computers. His political activities began at age 14 when he gave a speech against the Vietnam War in his ninth grade English class. His blog is A Burning Patience:

The middle section were quite good focusing on the triangle of Walter Berglund, his wife Patty, and his best friend Richard; these sections follow the trio from college to mid-life crises in their 40s showing how two best male friends always compete for decades including competing for the same woman Patty. This reader always looked forward to Katz's reappearance for his honesty. As Katz disappeared at p. 381 the rest of the novel was tedious.<br /><br />At one point Patty, trying to get into bed with Richard, is reading Tolstoy's War and Peace, and Franzen thinks his novel in some way is the big realist novel--562 pp.--like Tolstoy's big novel. Patty when 1st reading the novel gets "mired in a military section" but as she continues, she reads where 16-year old Natasha Rostov falls in love with Prince Andrei and now Patty even read's the "military stuff." After reading this, she sleepwalks her way into Richard Katz's bed—War and Peace as aphrodisiac! War and Peace as simpleminded romance! Patty even calls her husband Pierre, the hero of War and Peace.<br /><br />The military stuff is to me the best parts of War and Peace. Tolstoy had been a soldier in the Crimean war and knew war, describes how the French invasion of Russia bring liberty, equality, and fraternity through their bayonets. The war chapters show how French reach Moscow, how the Russians fled, how the French looted Moscow. Shades of Baghdad! Actually, the Iraq War comes up in Freedom as Walter’s son goes Republican, works for right-wing think tanks, and rakes in a small fortune selling defective truck parts to the U.S. army in Iraq.<br /><br />At the end of Tolstoy's novel, the once bumbling Pierre has been a prisoner of war of the French, had a spiritual awakening where he learns from a poor Russian peasant, gotten his freedom, and is plotting with his aristocratic friends for the Decembrist Revolution, the 1st great revolution to bring a democracy to Russia—it failed, of course. Pierre has become a citizen or would-be citizen of a democracy he hopes to create.<br /><br />In contrast, Franzen's freedom is not creating a democracy but freedom from delusions or from adolescent neurosis. The modern Pierre or Walter has gotten a job in Washington D.C. working for a Texas billionaire to make a bird preserve which involved making deals with coal companies so they could do mountaintop removal. The novel seemed to be at this point an interesting satire of Big Green—liberal honchos who wind up doing more harm than good through political dealing. At novel's end Walter is free of his delusions that he can collude with coal companies to save birds—one version of freedom for Franzen. Walter’s son is free of his delusion of making millions by selling defective truck parts to the U.S. army.<br /><br /> Both Walter and Patty are portrayed as having miserable adolescences and having miserable parents, but by novel’s end Patty reconciles with her dying father, forgives her mother, and is free in this paean to banal Freudianism. At novel’s end free Patty is able to heal all the family feuds, help sell her grandfather’s estate, and get $75,000. Franzen’s main characters at the end come up smiling roses—free at last of neurosis or delusions about making the quick buck yet they are still in the cash.<br /><br />At the novel’s end Walter is back at his mother's place on Nameless Lake hating his working class neighbor who loves her cat which eats birds. Walter and Patty take their most drastic action actions against these working louts: in chapter 1 Patty slashes the tires of a working class neighbor for cutting down the trees in his backyard to build a den and in the novel's end Walter kidnaps the bird-eating cat. It seems a crime in Franzenland to love one's cat or to build a den in one’s backyard. Tolstoy, in contrast, was obsessed with bringing equality to Russia and renounced his priviledges as an aristocrat.<br /><br />Walter’s great crusade besides birds is for zero population growth and the novel is full of his tedious rants that too many poor people having too many babies destroy the environment. So Walter goes to war not against coal companies but against poor for having babies. In many ways Walter resembles the coal companies in attacking the poor. While the coal companies are simply greedy, Walter has a neurotic view of Nature as pristine and pure hopefully unsullied by anything as messy as humans, particularly poor humans. While Walter rants against the poor, Tolstoy celebrates what Pierre learns as a prisoner of war from another poor prisoner.<br /><br />Unlike Patty, Walter never seems to heal his adolescent neurosis, and at novel’s end Walter has never forgiven his older brother Mitch for adolescent torments now goes to see Mitch who is jobless and homeless. Walter decides not to offer Mitch the vacant family house because Walter and his girlfriend—both well-heeled urban professionals—might want to live there. Franzen in a novel seemingly celebrating family and devoted to family has Walter neglect his own family in need.<br /><br />Also Walter seems focused on his anti-cat crusade as two of his neighbors on Nameless Lake are foreclosed. It’s the lout neighbors who help the two families in want, not Walter obsessed with birds. Walter comes off as an elitist anti-human crank who cares nothing about his neighbors having economic problems in the Big Recession. If you want to read a book with a big heart, read War and Peace.California Writerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01215264068422830371noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7863746.post-90217137819020511792011-03-12T11:55:00.001-08:002011-03-12T11:55:46.844-08:00LA Laborfest Triangle Shirtwaist 100th Anniversary Commemoration Events March/Aprill 2011March 12, 2011, 11:46 am<br /><br />L.A.

C. Marimbo announces the premiere publication of 2011:<br />"Walking Through the River of Fire: 100 Years of Triangle Factory Fire Poems"<br />Edited by Julia Stein with an introduction by Jack Hirschman<br /><br />This anthology remembers a turning point in U.S. history when on March 25, 1911, a fire swept through the Triangle Shirtwaist Company. The owners had locked the main door; the fire escapes broke. Within the hour 146 immigrant workers—mostly women--were dead. The Triangle fire galvanized a national social justice movement to protect workers’ health and to build unions.<br /><br />The anthology of poems is organized to tell the story of the fire chronologically: the first group of poems deals with the fire itself and those who died, those who survived, and those who witnessed. The next group of poems describes identifying the bodies and the funeral. The third section describes the trial and organizing for new laws to make it safe to work. The last group of poems looks back at the fire years later. These poems tell a dramatic, gripping story in a way that actors or poets can producer readers’ theater or poets’ theater to engage the audience in the Fire.<br /><br />A few days after the Triangle fire in 1911 Yiddish poet Morris Rosenfeld published in Yiddish his “Memorial to Triangle Fire Victims” on the front page of the Jewish Daily Forward. After a few years American poets forgot about the fire, forgetting for 55 years. When editor Julia Stein was a young poet in 1980 writing poetry about her grandmother’s generation of immigrant garment workers, she first wrote about the Triangle Factory fire inspired by Morris Rosenfeld’s poem. Then through the work of literary critics Janet Zandy and Karen Kovacik, Stein discovered a new post-1980s generation of poets writing about the Triangle fire. These new Triangle poets are Chris Lllewellyn (1981); Mary Fell (1984); Hilton Obenzinger (1989); Carol Tarlen (1996), Ruth Daigon (2001); and Alice Rogoff (2010). <br /><br />Some of these poets’ Triangle poetry won major poetry prizes: Llewellyn’s book won the Whitman Award for Poetry while Mary Fell’s won the National Poetry Series. These poets attack the sweatshop, recapture the lives of immigrant women and of women workers, and inscribe workers’ lives and tragedies into literature. These poets have reacted to the post-1980 growing inequality in the United States with their Triangle fire poetry. The poems here are only a small selection of 100 years of literature about Triangle fire: a growing body of poetry, novels, dramas, and performance pieces. This small group of American poets is producing a new American poetry: public, historical, and engaged with society.<br /><br /><br /><br />--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />To: Randy Fingland, CC Marimbo, PO Box 933, Berkeley, CA 94701-0933<br /><br />Send me _______________ copies of<br /><br />Walking Through the River of Fire: 100 Years of Triangle Fire poetry<br />44 pages, hand-sewn limited edition, ISBN 1-9030903-57-X publication date February 1, 2010<br />$12 (+$2 S and H for one; for every copy thereafter, 50cents; 25 or more free freight)<br />For further information: Randy Fingland, CC.

The books is also a wonderful Los Angeles memoir.<br /><br />The first seven chapter wonderfully captures Los Angeles and the 1950s and early 1960s youth counterculture there. Evans describes his feelings of being a teen outsider stemming from his parents' belief in spiritualism and seances; his family's poverty; and his parents' disintegrating marriage. He grew up in a tough working class neighborhood of Beverly and Temple just west of downtown Los Angeles. During high school Evans stumbles upon Colin Wilson's The Outsider, a 1950s cult book among the intellectually alienated. The Outsider gave Evans an intellectual identity as well as a reading list--H. G. Wells, Camus, Sartre, Blake, T. E. Lawrence, Nijinsky, P.D. Ouspensky, George Guardjieff et al. Evans as well as thousands of other 1950s outcasts devoured these books developing their outsider identity.<br /><br /> I was growing up in Los Angeles a little younger than Evans also read Wilson and many of these same books. My old friend Lionel Rolfe published Evans' book with his small press Boryana Books; Rolfe's previous press California Classics published my 2nd book of poetry and also Bread and Hyacinths, a book about Job Harriman and the 1912 socialist movement of Los Angeles. Rolfe has long written and published books which are a rebel as well as a intellectual history of Los Angeles in the 20th century.<br /><br />Evans' memoir has wonderful chapters about his time at Los Angeles City College participating in the civil rights movement and coffee house scene around LACC and then his recruitment into the youth group of the Socialist Workers Party, the dominant U.S. Trotskyist party. He wonderfully describes being the party's first organizer at UCLA and the UCLA radical scene of the early 1960s. He aptly summarizes this time with the Wordsworth quote, "Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive, but to be young was very heaven." These chapters beautifully capture the early 1960s radicalism among Los Angeles youth.<br /><br /> The heart of this book is Evan's 22 years in the Socialist Workers Party (SWP), starting in Los Angeles and then over a decade and half in New York during the SWP's glory years when it was central to mobilizing huge numbers in the anti-Vietnam War marches. Evan's book is looking back after he was expelled when the party became a cult in the early 1980s. This memoir is much like The God that Failed, the book of essays by 1930s writers including Richard Wright, Ignazio Silone, Arthur Koestler who were Communists and wrote about became disenchanted with the Communist Party.<br /><br /> Evans' describes SWP as always having cult-like features even in the early 1960s. His party mentor counseled Evans, a poor youth, to drop out of UCLA when he only had one semester to finish as "workers will never trust you if they know you have an escape hatch you can always jump into when times get hard." Evans then flunked out, and soon began his new life in New York working for party publications at subsistence wages and living in tenements. During the 1960s the SWP never wanted its members to have children but since Evans was very young and uninterested in fatherhood at the time, he doesn't complain.<br /><br />His 1960s/early 1970s chapters give great descriptions of the highs--he learned how to be a reporter, an editor, run a printing press. The SWP still had a lively bunch of middle aged and senior intellectuals who mentored young Evans; Evans wrote about 1960s revolts around the world. Party activists worked hard building anti-war demonstrations which grew and grew, and Evans participating in this making of history. <br /><br />In the early 1970s the SWP elders had promoted young Jack Barnes to party leadership by the early 1970s while Evans became editor of the party's theoretical magazine. Evans' explains the SWP's decline as Barnes and his group became a tight anti-intellectual clique who wanted the whole organization to speak with the Barnes' voice. Trotskyism have previously had a rich intellectual history in the 1930s with leading U.S. writers around Partisan Review magazine were Trotskyists as well as leading French and Mexican painters; Evans in his magazine wanted continue this tradition by reaching out to the new radical scholars in the universities with the magazine but Barnes stopped him. Evans published articles on welfare, inner cities, prison revolts, pollution, energy crises. Barnes criticized these pieces and then removed Evans as editor of the party's theoretical magazine.<br /><br /> In the 1970s radicals could have continued to hook up together in broad coalitions and innovative journals but Evans shows that the sect leaders stopped this intellectual openness. I saw the same process going on in the women's movement where I edited <span style="font-style:italic;">Sister</span>, a feminist newspaper in Los Angeles running anti-nuclear as well as articles on women. Secterian feminisst wanted to toe a strict feminist party lie leading to the end of the coalition that run the paper and then the end of the newspaper.<br /><br />With the end of the huge anti-war demonstrations after 1972 the SWP like other radical groups looked for new places to be active as the country grew more conservative. SWP was one of a number of small Marxist groups which sent its members to work in industry, a move which further isolated the leftists from their urban base. For the last 5 years of the 1970s Evans was disenchanted with the Barnes' leadership but hung in his little niche putting out historical books for the party until he went into industry getting a job as a miner in the iron range in northern Minnesota. Evans explains why he and others hung on: "for most of us the party was our lives. We looked on nonmembers the way a Christian fundamentalist looks on the apostate and the unsaved, as not really part of the true human race ...." <br /><br />Evans describes a fascinating tale of failure as a miner/SWP militant in the Iron Range; the 12 SWP activists valiantly tried but failed to support miners' union dissidents while their party began expulsions of dissidents to the new party line--a great irony. Evans realized that when the miners' faced huge layoffs the tiny group of 12 SWP members on the Iron Range failed at doing anything to stop the layoffs. The "turn to industry" was a huge failure never actually discussed in the party. Evans argues that the Barnes group was disenchanted with Trotsky, wanted to realign SWP "as the U.S. franchise of the Cuban Communist Party," so Barnes made a "preemptive strike against all those in the SWP who could not be trusted to go along with such a shift." <br /><br />Finally, Evans moved back to Los Angeles where he and many others were formally expelled in bizarre trials--recreations of 1930s purge trials. Evans is particularly poignant in his psychological descriptions of himself and other SWP militants who had spent 20, 30, 40 years in the party which was the most important thing in their lives and were being expelled: "Now they were like deer on a railroad track with the train bearing down on them. I was a sympathetic observer of their dilemma, the collapse of their lives." SWP kept on expelling and losing members until it became a tiny sect of 200 people.<br /><br />In analyzing his expulsion, Evans criticizes the dictatorial tendencies of Lenin and Leninist-based parties such as SWP, arguing that Lenin both theoretically justified a dictorship as well established in practice the dictatorship. Evams also criticizes Trotsky for agreeing to Lenin's supression of the other left and liberal parties "when he was in power, protesting the arrest and execution of Communists by Stalin" (286). Evans, always a boy from the streets with survival skills, hooks up with an old girlfriend who becomes the love of his life and gets himself into graduate school at UCLA in sociology where he encounters Max Weber and ceased being a Marxist by 1988. He criticizes both three aspects of Marx: 1) Marx's dialectic is wrong; 2) Marx based his theory of 19th century science which was criticized by 20th century science; 3.) Weber not Marx shows that the state could bring dictatorship rather than liberation.<br /><br />At the end Evans winds up happily married, becoming part of his wife's extended family, and an editor/researcher at UCLA. He and his wife restore a 100-year old house in West Adams district as part of the middle class who gentrify of the inner city near USC. He concentrates not on international but on neighborhood politics--doing anti-gang work. He and his wife build a huge garden around their rebuilt house--literary "cultivating their garden." The books ending--stories of cats and family--could be trimmed a bit. But Evan's memoir is a fascinating tale about teenage alienation in the 1950s, a radical youth in 1960s, the decline of the Socialist Workers Party into a bizarre cult in the 1970s, and the transformation of a young radical into a middle aged man cultivating his garden in the 1980s--the story of many in his generation.California Writerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01215264068422830371noreply@blogger.com3
