Debra Di Blasi’s contribution to the Wreckage of Reason II Blog Tour is beautifully Debra Di Blasi.

Her piece, “Olbers’ Paradise,” includes sketches and photographs and dark boxes and symbols and of course, amazing language.

Each of the writers included in the collection was asked to briefly describe our motivation/inspiration for our contribution. Debra writes:

After my elder sister died an indescribably agonizing death from pancreatic cancer, I began a collection of multimedia essays as an attempt to express the ineffable grief that results from the death of sibling, of self, and of entire species. All essays arise from The Dictionary of Theories.

She created a You Tube production called:

WALLACE’S LINE by Debra Di Blasi

She begins by explaining more about how she came to write the piece, which is one essay as part of a hybrid, multimedia experiment “exploring personal and global extinction.”

Take the time to listen and you won’t regret it.

Wreckage of Reason II: Back to the Drawing Board, an anthology of experimental writing edited by Nava Renek. Wreckage of Reason is available through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Powell’s, and other fine bookstores.
