[edit] Raymond Carver / phenomenology / inquiry
To Whom It May Be of Interest to Kindly Reply -
I am a student in the mid-west. Recently I was introduced to the short fiction of Raymond Carver (1938-1988), specifically the collection What We Talk About When We Talk About Love (knopf 81'). If you are familiar with his work you may know that it is spare in manner, and has been compared to that of Kafka or Pinter.
Concurrent to this I have been reading about Husserl and phenomenology.
The idea of understanding/interpreting Carvers' character sketches from an phenomenological perspective fascinates me. But as I am a rank amature with philosophy, perhaps I am projecting too much and the comparison is unlikely. I can find no commentary on this idea. I would appreciate any reply at:

- I am very sorry, but I am not acquainted with the work of Raymond Carver. I will be sure to look into him. Drifter 15:57, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
Drift - Thanks. If you should find the time for that, perhaps you would shoot me a few lines on this. teddisonsmith@insightbb.com
