Fire Quotes by Laura Mullen

Laura Mullen

I love that “furious and gorgeous barrage.” That helps me see the relation between the introduction and the book’s final section, where writing about a fire (and about the attempt to understand the event), also becomes an attempt to understand how writing might get closer to the fire, in so many ways.

It seems all “protection” has to be monitored, considered, weighed and justified – I am suggesting we do that (but it’s something Mary Shelley (and Gertrude Stein) also suggest). “Torch Song,” the book’s final section, looks at an arson committed by someone hired to protect the wilderness from fires, a catastrophic failure of protection!

The boundary between expert and amateur was an imposed social-cultural “protection” which actually exposed a number of women to a fatal disease, because decaying matter, as the fireman said of fire (cited in the book’s final piece, “Torch Song”) “ain’t got no rules on it.”
