Parallel Movement of the Hands
From Virgil to Nabokov, dead authors are often the most prolific. T. S. Eliot, who in his lifetime would put forth a slim volume every couple of years, has in the past decade become extravagantly productive, issuing thick volumes of letters and hefty installments of the collected prose at a pace that threatens to overwhelm both readers and bookshelves. The oeuvre of Elizabeth Bishop has grown posthumously several times in size, like Alice after s…

Prostheses of vision-the Voigt-Kampff test and the Esper machine-permit detective Rick Deckard to probe physical and even mental space, and extend his search for android "replicants" into distant rooms and into the minds of the characters he encounters. In the Esper sequence, Deckard analyzes the photograph cherished by the replicant Leon, an analysis that turns on the presence of a convex m…

While double p…
