Fiction. In SELF-TITLED, Geoffrey Brown stares into a mirror and writes what he sees, what he thinks, what he feels.The result is a self-portrait that's at once comic and psychotic, a complex consciousness captured in crystalline prose. Memories, manias, miasmas - Brown morphs the machinery of his mind into an utterly original entity, equal parts diary, criminal confession, sex manual and mash note, as he contemplates a breakup. SELF-TITLED is a singular achievement with universal appeal: who hasn't squinted into a mirror and said, "What the hell is happening here?" If Gertrude Stein's autobiography was Everybody's Autobiography, then Brown's self-portrait is everybody's self-portrait.
