If I could have someone stand beside me where ever I go and whisper thought provoking, relevant, and witty sentences into my ear so I could relay them, Cyrano style, into the world, the person I choose could quite possibly be Miranda July. Her words are simple, and in the beginning they can seem frivolous, floral, even slightly sappy, until they knee you in the groin and show you what they're made of. She wrote a collection of short stories called "No One Belongs Here More Than You", a title that immediately appeals to my ego and wants me make its author a friend on Facebook, but that also contains a stories that are friendly yet fearful, the perfect combination sweet and sour, that make me rethink my normally negative reaction to short stories.
She's also done short films and long films, art films and art shows, and this one here is here is a bit old, but then so am I, so it's no wonder I am a little behind....
