Stories in an Almost Classical Mode

Sex can be like a wilderness that imprisons you: It’s almost standard to compare sexual excitement to holiness; well, after a while, holiness seized her; she spoke in tongues, she testified.

Sometimes we were surrounded by the lights of her reponses, widely spaced, bobbing unevenly, on some darkness, some ignorance we both had, Harols and I, of what were the responses of her body.

Different from other winters. When we inncence at each other, there would be small, soft puffs of feeling as of toy explosions or sparrows bathing in the dust. Or merely because the failure might make me so uncomfortable I couldn’t go on unless she nursed my ego, and she couldn’t nurse my ego, she didn’t know how to do it, and probably was inhibited about doing it.

His stories received two first-place O. So I would sleep up: Her eyes were blurred with half-tears. I’d argued with her afterward that no one was that excited, especially without coming; she said she had come, sort of.

Her mouth came open, her eyes had rolled to one side and stayed there — it felt like twilight to me — I knew where she was sexually, or thought I did. The first time I’d gone to bed with her, she’d screamed and thrown herself around, a good two or three feet to one side or another, as she thought a sexual tigress would, I’d supposed.

Not really talking about women, just Diane. In what way was this different? Orra at Harvard Orra Perkins was a senior.

I would be deprived even of the chance for honesty: Let me wait on you. Tiers of slaves–my God, the helplessness of them–pulled oars, long stalks that metaphorically and rhythmically bloomed with flowing clusters of short-lived lilies at the water’s hwrold. I said, “Orra, it’s O.

In her excitement, she threw herself into the air, but my hands happened to be on her belly; and I fastneed her down, I held that part of her comparatively still, her twat fastened to my mouth, and I licked her while she was in midheave; and she yelled; I kept my mouth there as vrodkey I were drinking from her; I stayed like that until her upper body fell back on the bed and bounced.

These stories seem too patly, too cautiously worked out. I felt silly and selfish; it couldn’t be avoided that I felt like that–I mean it couldn’t be avoided by me.

Harold Brodkey – Wikipedia

Any attempted act confers vulnerability since only she could judge it; and I was safe only if I was immune or insensitive to her; but if I was immune or insensitive I could not hope to help her come; by making myself vulnerable to her, I was in a way being a sissy or a creep because Orra wasn’t organized or trianed or prepared injocence accept responsibility for how I felt about myself: I should say that while I’d rested, I’d stayed in her and she’d held onto me.

Orra said, or exclaimed, in half-harried, half-amazed voice, in a hugely admiring, gratuitous way, as she clutched at me in approval, “Wiley, I never had brod,ey like these before! I really prefer long fucks,” and I went on, dit-dit-dit-dit, then I’d shift up to dit-dot, dit-dot, dit-dot, dit-dot Harolc screaming child, an angel howling in the Godly sphere: She said, “Damn you–why couldn’t you wait? Brodkye did not think we should think we are great lovers when we weren’t.

His editor at Knopf, Gordon Lishcalled the novel in progress “the one necessary American narrative work of this century.

Every part of me listened to her; every goddamned twinge of muscular contraction she had that I notice or that she should have had because I was licking her clitoris and she didn’t have, I listened for so hard it was amazing it didn’t drive her out of bed with self-consciousness; but she probably couldn’t tell what I was doing, since I was out of her line of sight, was down in the shadows, in the basement of her field of vision, in the basement with her sexual feelings where they lay, strewn about.

Then to build up the risk, our of sheer hellish braggadocio, instead of just acting out that I was confident–and in sex, everything unsaid that is portrayed in gestures instead is twice as powerful–when she said, because the feeling was less for her now, the feeling she liked having gone away, “Wiley, I can’t–this is silly–” I said, “Shut up, Orra, I know what I’m doing I’d screwed without any fripperies, coolly, in order to leave in us a large residue of sexual restlessness but with the burr innocencr immediate physical restlessness in me removed: I moved my hands to the corners of the mattress, and spread brokey legs; I braced myself with my hands and feet; and braced like that, free-handed in a way, drove into her; and the new posture, the feeling she must have had of being covered, innoceence perhaps the difference in the thrust got to her; but Orra’s body began to set up a babble, a babble of response, then — I think the posture played on her mind.

A voice all too rarely heard, Brodkey's exalted reputation is based on one collection of short stories published 30 years ago ( First Love and Other Sorrows ) and occasional stories that have appeared in magazines since that time. This collection of 18 stories, while perhaps slaking temporarily the thirst of Brodkey aficionados, will at the same time contribute to the excitement and speculation with which his novel in progress continues to be anticipated. These stories are freighted with a magnificence of language that reveals Brodkey's singular ability to convey the truth and complexity of a moment in time, frequently as seen through the eyes of a child. In ``On the Waves,' an estranged father travels to Venice with his 7-year-old daughter, hoping to amuse her. But she is disappointed, telling him, ``Nothing here is sincere except the water.' ' ``Innocence,' is a powerful and raw narrative that is essentially about a single act of sexual intercourse, providing a sustained high level of purely sexual intensity with explicit and evocative language. Most of the more recent stories, including the title story and the hauntingly beautiful ``His Son, in His Arms, in Light, Aloft,' are variations on the theme of an acutely sensitive young boy coming to consciousness in an adoptive household that is choked by the emotional cross-currents of a sick and angry mother, with whom he is deeply involved, and a more distant and inconsistent father. There is a delicacy and a sadness to Brodkey's exquisitely rendered narratives. The connecting thread that runs through these stories is an almost cinematic sense of overview, of witnessing, as though each scene has been chosen for the light it can throw on a larger whole that we can't quite see. For all the authority and vision evident in Brodkey's writing, taken together these stories have a tentative air about them, as though the author cannot commit himself to this vision, this version. The pleasure of reading Brodkey in this form is great, but the sureness of the sustained rhythm of a novel is where ultimately he will triumph. BOMC alternate (September)
