Fall season is fast approaching lots of praise for our forthcoming books Michael Martone on David Hamilton forthcoming “A Certain Arc” — “We forget to remember that what we think of now as “creative” nonfiction has not been around for, like, forever. David Hamilton (let’s call him the self-effacing founding father of the self) was there from the startling start, there for the endowing of all the alienating effects, the defamiliarizing of the newly weaponized ordnance of “ordinary” life. A dandy documentary, A Certain Arc, is a kind of fossil record of those revolutionary moments, but it is also a defining demonstration of the form itself—mesmerizing memoirs, murmurations, essay after essay—ecstatic, elegant, elemental, enchanting. Here is profound husbandry, restorative curation. Here are the articles of our confederation, our articulating articulation of our nascent art, our enabling apparatus of our unconventional convening.”—Michael Martone author of Brooding and The Moon Over Wapakoneta
