Time's Wallet

by Steve Katz

Literary Nonfiction. Memoir. Time's Wallet is a memoir written in discrete pieces, "memoirrhoids." The 54 short bits cover the variety and extent of a life from 1935 to the present, from Manhattan by various routes to Denver, Colorado. The work presents itself not as a narrative arc, but as memory itself occurs, in brief stories rising more or less at random in the mind. Each remembered narrative is allowed to resolve itself through its own form, and that variety creates a different overall texture. Each of the "stories" is transparent in itself, but they add up to a fertile opacity that is the ineluctable vitality of a life, and the impenetrable presence, the "here it is," of art.
