In this collection by the cult Scottish poet, novelist and renowned experimentalist, Kuppner hands us his field notes from life in an unfathomable universe, set out in three plaited sections.
Comic, cosmic: for Kuppner the terms are inseparable. In the three plaited sections of The Same Life Twice, Frank Kuppner asks the essential, answerless questions about human existence: What are we doing here? Is it really here? And why here? ‘Fortunately,’ he writes, ‘it is nearly alwayspossible to take notes, even if these habitually contradict each other.’ Here are Kuppner’s fieldnotes from life in an unfathomable universe. A sardonic Virgil showing us a directionless Infinity, Kuppner guides us through a reality inwhich we are just ‘one more of the ignorant infinite dots / rather than the vast central vortex we must feel ourselves to be’.
