Cubist Selfie: (an embellished translation of Edouard Leve's Autoportrait)

This memoir is inspired by Édouard Levé’s Autoportrait. An “embellished translation” that mimics Levé’s form and style, but uses my own content. Through nonlinear and associative fragments: it tells the story of my life. From a smart kid to a teen who dreamed of being a writer and traveling the world; to a 20-something who never took work seriously and a 30-something factory worker who needs new ideals. I write of family, friends, enemies, girlfriends, love, art, school, work, travel, and more. You could just as easily write a similar memoir; though our experiences will differ. More than likely some fragment within will connect you to your memories: the ones we share, and those we don’t.
