This book was heart aching. The examination of the pandemic and BLM protests through the view of this main character was intense. The haunting part of the story felt so sad too.

If the pattern seems missing, maybe we’re just zoomed in too far.
Louise Erdrich knew scale changes everything.

This image captures a piece of text art, likely a poem or a short conceptual work, presented on a distressed piece of brown paper. ​The majority of the work consists of the repetitive, typewritten phrases "No baby." and, occasionally, "Yes baby." filling the paper in a grid-like pattern. This repetition creates a dense, almost overwhelming texture of negation, punctuated by rare moments of affirmation. ​Below the typewritten text, the title is handwritten in red script: "Story of a Woman." A second, fainter signature or dedication appears underneath in what looks like graphite or a lighter pencil. ​The contrast between the mechanical repetition of the words and the personal, emotional titles, combined with the raw, torn edges of the paper, suggests a powerful commentary on fertility, societal expectations, choice, and female identity. The artist is Yvonne Rainer, an influential American choreographer and filmmaker. ​The label interprets the work as a reflection of being a woman and bearing children. ​The artist materializes the Story of a Woman through the combination of painting (the rhythmic lines) and prose (the repetitive, cyclical text). ​The repetitive text pattern, subtly and sporadically interrupted by the phrase "yes baby," is explicitly likened to how "cycles of childbearing might disrupt menstruation." ​The piece is a powerful statement about the nature of womanhood, fertility, and the rhythm of life. The rhythmic brushwork and repetitive text combine to form a profound commentary. This image captures a vertical, rectangular painting dominated by a dense pattern of horizontal lines and bands in shades of red, reddish-brown, and off-white/cream. ​Key visual features: ​Color and Texture: The majority of the surface is covered in closely packed, thin, and slightly irregular horizontal lines in a blood-red or rust color. These lines are laid over a lighter background, creating a woven or fibrous texture that evokes muscle tissue, geological strata, or pages of text. ​Composition: The lines form distinct horizontal bands across the canvas. Some bands are darker and more densely packed with red lines, while others are lighter, showing more of the cream background, which creates a rhythmic, wave-like pattern of alternating intensity. ​Technique: The appearance strongly suggests the material described on the museum label in a previous context: "Hundreds of horizontal, blood-red, rhythmical lines, like those written by hand on paper, appear on a stretched canvas." This identifies it as the acrylic on canvas component of Louise Erdrich's "Story of a Woman." The rhythmic, cyclical nature of the brushwork is intentional, relating to themes of the female body and life cycles.

For anyone wanting a historical analysis of just how messed up this is, please read The Round House, by #LouiseErdrich, (winner, National Book Award, fiction, 2012). Though set in the lower 48, there are important parallels to the problem of jurisdictional deserts and violence against women.

Finished book. Nowt to read on bus. I thought it was pretty poor. Reviews say ‘stunning - powerful - funny - heartwarming ‘. I thought it was none of those things. Stitched together and a bit dull. #louiseerdrich #thesentence Pollux bollux tookie wookie

Recycle the mail, don’t read it, don’t read anything
except what destroys
the insulation between yourself and your experience
or what pulls down or what strikes at or what shatters
this ruse you call necessity.

ADVICE TO MYSELF
By #LouiseErdrich

Leave the dishes.
Let the celery rot in the bottom drawer of the refrigerator
and an earthen scum harden on the kitchen floor.
Leave the black crumbs in the bottom of the toaster.
Throw the cracked bowl out and don’t patch the cup.

11/100 📚 🌾
📖: The Mighty Red by Louise Erdrich
Genre: Contemporary, Literary
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
Thoughts: I did not want this book to end. Sure it didn’t all make sense, but Erdrich crafts such painfully human characters, and puts them in such silly yet resonant scenarios. #BookSky #LouiseErdrich
A book cover for The Mighty Red by Louise Erdrich. It features a black and white illustration of a river as the backdrop to the title, which is written in big bold gold and red lettering.
