Hi Dave, Thanks for sharing your thinking. I find your direction invigorating. For now, I am wondering whether you might find Lisa Samuel's older essay 'Membranism, Wet Gaps, Archipelago Poetics' interesting for its imaginative examination of boundaries and representation. Some general themes that speak to me in your work are: the materialities (or immateriality) of touch and the question of 'what is therapeutic'. I also intrigued by what appears to be a circling back to ethics. Best wishes for the reading and writing :-)
What is the book going to be about?

Dave, I think this is fascinating. What about other kinds of touch? psychological, emotional...so much more than the physical touch of the body
