62. Geoff Dyer
    A Conversation with geoff dyer Author of YOGA FOR PEOPLE WHO CAN’T BE BOTHERED TO DO IT By Pantheon staff. geoff dyer is the author  
    http://www.absolutewrite.com/novels/geoff_dyer.htm
    
    Extractions: By Pantheon staff Geoff Dyer is the author of three novels: The Color of Memory The Search , and Paris Trance ; a critical study of John Berger, Ways of Telling ; and three genre-defying titles: But Beautiful (winner of the 1972 Somerset Maugham Prize), The Missing of the Somme , and Out of Sheer Rage (a National Book Critics Circle finalist). His latest, Yoga for People Who Can’t be Bothered to Do It , was released by Pantheon in January, 2003. He lives in London, where he spends much of his time wishing he lived in San Francisco. But the book is being published as nonfiction... Oh, it’s a distinction that means absolutely nothing to me. I like to write stuff that’s only an inch from life, from what really happened, but all the art is of course in that inch. My books tend not to have the narrative and story you associate with fiction but at the same time they are arranged and structured, to put it somewhat pompously, as works of art rather than as an accumulation of information. To that extent I like to think they are more novel than many novels.

63. Gassed

    http://www.stevebrown.clara.net/html/expeience_of_war/gassed.htm
    
    Extractions: Dyer on War Photos Unit 2 from 'The Missing of the Somme': John Singer Sargent's painting Gassed shows a line of ten men making their way through the mass of other gas victims sprawling on the ground on either side of them. Their eyes are bandaged and, as in Brueghel's Parable of the Blind, each man has his hand on the shoulder of the one in front. In the middle of the group a soldier turns away to vomit. Another, near the front, raises his leg high, expecting a step. An orderly guides and steadies the two men at the head of the line. Further off, to the right of the low sun, another group are making their way uncertainly forward. The soldiers in the foreground lie sleeping or resting, propped on one another. One drinks from a canteen. In the sky there are planes where birds should be, flying haphazardly. Henry Tonks, another war artist who was with Sargent when he saw the gassed soldiers, recalls the scene:

70. GEOFF DYER: A Note On Photographs
    A Note on Photographs by geoff dyer. PHOTO BY MILT HINTONPHOTOGRAPHS Bass Line by Milt Hinton. Text by geoff dyer, from But Beautiful , 1991.  
    http://boppin.com/dyer.html
    
    Extractions: A Note on Photographs by Geoff Dyer PHOTOGRAPHS SOMETIMES WORK on you strangely and simply: at first glance you see things you subsequently discover are not there. Or rather, when you look again you notice things you initially didn't realise were there. In Milt Hinton's photograph of Ben Webster, Red Allen and Pee Wee Russell, for example, I thought that Allen's foot was resting on the chair in front of him, that Russell was actually drawing on his cigarette, that ... The fact that it is not as you remember it is one of the strengths of Hinton's photograph (or any other for that matter), for although it depicts only a split-second the felt duration of the picture extends several seconds either side of that frozen moment to include - or so it seems - what has just happened or is about to happen: Ben tilting back his hat and blowing his nose, Red reaching over to take a cigarette from Pee Wee ... Oil paintings leave even the Battles of Britain or Trafalgar strangely silent. Photography, on the other hand, can be as sensitive to sound as it is to light. Good photographs are there to be listened to as well as looked at; the better the photograph the more there is to hear. The best jazz photographs are those saturated in the sound of their subject. In Carol Reiff's photo of Chet Baker on-stage at Birdland we hear not just the sound of the musicians as they are crowded into the small stage of the frame but the background chat and clinking glasses of the nightclub. Similarly, in Hinton's photo we hear the sound of Ben turning the pages of the paper, the rustle of cloth as Pee Wee crosses his legs. Had we the means to decipher them, could we not go further still and use photographs like this to hear what was actually being said? Or even, since the best photos seem to extend beyond the moment they depict, what has just

    Extractions: GEOFF DYER Geoff Dyer was born in Cheltenham in 1958. He ‘rode an educational escalator’ which took him from the local Grammar School to Corpus Christi College, Oxford. His first book, Ways of Telling , published in1986, written while living on the dole in London, was a critical study of the writer John Berger, who has been the biggest influence on his subsequent writing. In 1989 he published The Colour of Memory (Cape/Abacus), a novel which recorded the life of a group of friends in Brixton. In 1990 he was one of four writers – with Jenny Diski, Marina Warner and Edmund White – who each contributed a 15 minute script based on the theme of Seduction which was broadcast on Channel 4. In 1991 he spent three months in New Orleans, writing the first draft of the novel, The Search , which was published by Hamish Hamilton in 1993. A Shadow into the Future , the radio adaptation of his book The Missing of the Somme was broadcast on the eve of the 80 th anniversary of the Somme on BBC Radio 3.

72. Geoff Dyer's Meanderings Take Readers Down A Hilarious Road
    Friday, February 7, 2003. geoff dyer s meanderings take readers down a hilarious road. By ANDREA HOAG SPECIAL TO THE POSTINTELLIGENCER. COMING UP. geoff dyer.  
    http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/books/107526_book07.shtml
    
    Extractions: SPECIAL TO THE POST-INTELLIGENCER In "Yoga for People Who Can't Be Bothered To Do It" (Pantheon, 272 pages, $22), Geoff Dyer offers not a fitness manual, but a travel bible for modern-day slackers. This collection of 11 essays takes the art of hipster adventure to a level rarely seen since Jack Kerouac fashioned a series of cross-country treks into classic literary fare in "On the Road." COMING UP GEOFF DYER WHAT: Reading and book signing WHERE: The Elliott Bay Book Co., 101 S. Main St., 206-624-6640 In his first journey, Dyer spends three months in New Orleans attempting a novel, while gathering the courage to hop a freight train. As the book's name implies, Dyer undertakes many things that never quite work out neither the book nor the illicit train ride occur but his self-deprecation along the way makes his perpetual dilly-dallying hilariously readable. Always attracted to lowlifes, the author's best friend in New Orleans is Donelly, a cancer survivor who came "through a series of operations sufficiently full of life to try . . . to kill himself." Dyer is awed by his friend's utter indifference and transfixed by Donelly's tales of espionage during his Army days.

73. "Ein Flaneur Globalen Ausmaßes" | Geoff Dyer | "Reisen, Um Nicht Anzukommen" |
    Translate this page In seinem neuen Buch “Reisen, um nicht anzukommen” erzählt geoff dyer von den Wonnen des Sich-Treiben-Lassens auf den Wogen des Lebens.  
    http://www.kulturkueche.de/inhalt/buch/buch53.htm
    
    Extractions: Der Tourismus ist die Ankunft der Globalisierung im Alltag. Ob Strandurlaub auf den Seychellen, Trekking im Himalaya oder Bildungsreise in die Ewige Stadt: Sämtliche Bedürfnisse nach räumlicher und inhaltlicher Abwechslung werden von der weltumspannenden Tourismus-Industrie bedient. Eine Reise beginnt mit einem Aufbruch und endet mit der Rückkehr. Dazwischen liegt das befristete Eintauschen des Vertrauten gegen das ersehnte Fremde. Beim Aufbruch aus dem familiären und beruflichen Alltag sind die Gedanken der Reisenden bereits am Ort, der Abwechslung und Entspannung, Abenteuer und Bildung verheißt. Die Passage dorthin wird billigend in Kauf genommen und so komfortabel wie möglich gestaltet. Ganz anders die Haltung des Briten Geoff Dyer. In seinem neuen Buch “Reisen, um nicht anzukommen” schildert er in elf Erzählungen das Reisen als Selbstzweck. Als Zugabe nimmt der globale Flaneur die Eindrücke der Orte mit, an denen er Station macht. Seine Reisen führen den 1958 geborenen Dyer nach New Orleans, Paris, Rom und Amsterdam, nach Kambodscha, Indonesien, Libyen und in die Wüste von Nevada. Er arbeitet an einem Reiseführer, besucht alte Freunde, berichtet von einem Trance-Konzert, besichtigt antike Kultstätten, spielt Tischtennis und nimmt dabei jede Menge Drogen. Seine unstete Haltung lässt ihn stets nach neuen Reizen suchen, die es immer nur da gibt, wo er gerade nicht ist, erst recht nicht daheim in London: “Zuhause ist der Ort, wo am wenigsten passiert.”
