Abstract

Meteors is a collection of five short stories, each of which illustrates a concern for those who are inarticulate and for that which goes unspoken in everyday speech, for the failure, in other words, of language to adequately communicate. The characters presented here either lack the words they need or are constrained from saying them; as a result, they live both in silence and powerlessness. The stories themselves, one might suggest, search for articulation, not only at the level of narrative, but also at the level of the text.
