Summary

At the end of volume I of 'SSES" 'SSES" "SSEY' the author has the corpse of his dead dad surgically removed from his Deleuzian BwO but then O.D.s (dying in a parked car, like his father) post-op, before the scar heals, becoming Ulysses in a father-figurative sense. In Textiloma (vol II), the medical transcript of "the making of" (a prescription of sorts) is figuratively transplanted into the BwO of the surviving brother (now Telemachus) who adopts a patient/ghost-writer (anon I'm us) to adapt the script since he's too close to the material + deathly afraid of needles + 'sirjury,' reverse engineering this contextual operation to bring both brother + father home for a proper burial.
