Michael struggles with an unconventional mashup of holocaust memoir and
sports-based dystopia in Georges Perec’s W, or The Memory of
Childhood
, while Emily is captivated by the sexual
politics of Susan Choi’s Trust Exercise, yet
frustrated by its open-ended narrative. They talk about trauma, memory, age
gaps in dating, and visualizing the things you read.
