The Transcript

By Alin Cristian and Lew Rubens

The Transcript is a philosophical novel in which the corporeal, traditionally notorious for its obscurity, gets invested with tactile 'transparency.' Love acquires the power to permeate the lover's flesh in not only tangible but also legible ways-a Braille of sorts exclusively for private, non-repeatable use. So, could the object of love surface on the lover's skin in the form of a virtual script? It depends on the quality of the contact. The touch of a true lover might be capable of decrypting this quivering, smudgy Braille each of us ultimately embodies. For, in a way, we are what we love. This means, among others, that the thickest opacity also doubles as our most inspired guide beyond ourselves; its way is that of writing.
