In the Worlding of Kathleen Stewart

This chapter presents an imaginary conversation between the author and Kathleen Stewart around their common passions and doubts. It is an experiment with a creative writing aimed at performing affect rather than writing about affect. The conversation takes place during an encounter in a daydream and the text that follows is a collage, a literary work that imitates the style and the rhythm of previous works by sticking them onto a surface. It imitates the interactions between two people in flesh and blood while performing the intra-actions between texts and interrogating other texts that are present in their absence.
