Meditation corner

About the book The Reflection Corner is a thoughtful portrait of married life and a brave confession of secrets of intimacy, trust, faith, and knowledge, and an literary statement about the state of the sinking of the world ship that unites us all. And as Don DeLillo and James Baldwin point out that "the sentence is the key to novels," it seems that Jenny O'Fiel benefited from that and from Fonnigott's advice, so she wrote this novel, benefiting from all of that in an attempt to search for the style of the upcoming novel, the millennium and twenty-first-century novel. She presented an adventurous, unconventional work far from the familiar narrative that features linear, continuous communication, as was evident in Victorian and Russian novels of the nineteenth century. Jenny O'Fiel here offers a (tree-like) work in which the author jumps from branch to another, sometimes almost randomly. It involves transferring the daily lived reality after recording her thoughts about it in a virtual environment. In brief excerpts from life, as experienced by the wife-author, O'Fiel constructs a beautiful collage for the narrator's entity. She publishes scientific facts, philosophical dilemmas, literary quotes, and avoids direct superficial narration of the story, instead presenting abstract connections that better capture the mind and soul of the narrator. "There are 60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour, 24 hours in a day, 7 days in a week, 52 weeks in a year, and some years in a person's life. Find the value of S?"
