Description
First Aid dresses wounds inflicted in a world of "same," self-absorption, and the death of the literary. It marks out what has been lost and explores alternative ways for Homo sapiens. The title also refers to the Percival myth where the wound carries the cure. Think Schiller's play drive. Think a bridge over romanticism, modernism, and postmodernism.
