That’s funny, my brother David just sent me Novels in Three Lines (mentioned in that last link). It does seem “the literary equivalent of Weegee.” Strange little prose poems. It arrived yesterday so I haven’t sunk into all of it yet. I like it though.
David is my eldest brother — 20 years older than me.
