Fs59: An Otobiography
Album US 2000 on True Classical CDs label
Electronic (Experimental, Musique Concrète)
"To read [the narrative] as simply autobiography is to perpetuate the fiction that the working-class author can only tell [his or her] story, that is that s/he cannot craft anew but can only mechanically reproduce. If the apparent 'nakedness' of autobiography (its revelation of the facts) signifies to the reader 'working-class' and the layers of the imaginary in fiction that distance the real signify 'educated,' [the text's] fictional autobiography stymies yet another pair of categorical absolutes, neither embracing 'educated' to jettison 'working-class' nor allowing the reader to remain unchallenged in his or her assumptions of an uncreative working class." ~Jay Prosser on Leslie Feinberg's novel Stone Butch Blues (Prosser, Second Skins: The Body Narratives Of Transsexuality [New York: Columbia University Press, 1998], 199).
