The Ghost of Understanding
Jean Smith
onstage persona, have inspired many throughout North America and Europe. She has also turned her talents to literature, having published her first novel, I Can Hear Me Fine , in 1993. Her long-awaited second novel attempts to find the razor’s edge between order and chaos in a complicated, male-dominated world. Impressionistic sound-bytes combine with colorful, hyper-aware riffs in which Claudine, the narrator, invites the reader to participate in her subjective world of memory, vision, and flashback. Explosively intimate, it gleefully tears down sexual and social icons while reminding us that history is really only one story.
