HTML:A Vintage Shorts Nonfiction Original One of the most valuable spaces for an artist is the inner lifeâ??the sacred place where, outside of the constraints of time and space, meaning is extracted from raw experience and fashioned into art. In this timely new essay, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Richard Russo discusses the work writers do as they sift through experience and work to cultivate rich interior lives. For authors, this often involves performing triage, a constant assessment of events that helps determine whatâ??s useful for a story and potentially enduring. But what is at stake when we perform triage? Is an artistâ??s interior life an act of generosity or selfishness? Reflecting on a year of reading and meditations on the nature of interiority brought up by a global pandemic and orders to stay at home, Triage is a candid and arresting look at the process that goes into creative work, by one of our most celebrated and bestselling novelists.

It is published as a Vintage Short in March 2022.
It is ‘short’. A Memoir of sorts.
Mr. Russo reflects on a year of reading and meditations; an uncertain year/two years of isolation and a world turned upside-down by Covid.
I love the title…Triage.
Instead of assigning degrees of urgency to medical issues, Mr. Russo attempts to ‘sort through’ or assign or ‘triage’ his experiences during Covid into workable, realistic, meaningful future stories.
I kept thinking of this ‘short’ long after I finished reading. (This happens with all of Mr. Russo’s works.) It is very insightful, realistic, thought-provoking. ***** ( )
