The reason you can't find "...Dear Giulia,<br /><br />The reason you can't find "Like You I'm Trapped" by Alistair Campbell is that that's not actually the title of the poem. It's called "The Trap", and can be found in his collected poems. I do actually have a pdf of the poem I could send you. You can find my contact details at work (including an email address) here: http://www.massey.ac.nz/massey/expertise/profile.cfm?stref=345930.<br /><br />If you write to me there, I can send you the text of the poem ("Like you I'm trapped" is actually its third-to-last line).<br /><br />You can find more information and links about Alistair Te Ariki Campbell here:<br />http://aonzpsa.blogspot.co.nz/2007/11/campbell-alistair-te-ariki.html<br />Dr Jack Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01805945600952222957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29676463.post-67398801415866355712018-05-16T04:48:46.838+12:002018-05-16T04:48:46.838+12:00Hi, im Giulia from Italy and i bumped in your blog...Hi, im Giulia from Italy and i bumped in your blog because i'm writing my thesis on Chris Kraus I Love Dick. In particular i was looking for some information about a poem she quotes in the book. the poem is Like You I'm Trapped by Alistair Campbell and the web led me to your blog. The poem seems to be anywhere though.. I thought she might set the name up or something like this. Reading your posts (i read the Colville one as well:) i got the idea that you might know something more then me about it..? <br />I hope so,<br />thank you,<br />GiuliaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16091526419113924573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29676463.post-53563621211882951852015-11-23T20:44:21.199+13:002015-11-23T20:44:21.199+13:00I've just finished reading I Love Dick, blown ...I've just finished reading I Love Dick, blown away by the whole experience. I read it with no idea of the New Zealand connection. Yes, it is definitely the Great New Zealand novel- and it achieves this status by treating us as an aside, which of course we are. Loved her descriptions of Wellington- Butterfly Creek ( I went there in a primary school party and there took my first photograph- of the creek- with my box Brownie). I want to start reading it again. There are strange parallels with my own life...my mother June Black came out to New Zealand from America on the Niagra, on board was Katherine Mansfield's father, Sir Harold Beauchamp, who she struck up a conversation with, and told him she wanted to become a writer. She was about 15. He told her his daughter had been a writer, but she had recently died, and that he would buy her one of her books when the ship got to Honolulu. So they set off to find a bookshop, but they didn't have any of her books, so he bought her something else, I'm not sure what it was.<br />I'm also intrigued by the funding for the film she was making and why it was withdrawn. That seems to have been a missed opportunity for NZ, but then NZ really is very provincial, no matter how hard we try not to be.<br /> Sheridan Keithnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29676463.post-35737800876089192952015-07-19T23:11:32.766+12:002015-07-19T23:11:32.766+12:00Interesting.

I see she is spoken of with the philosopher husband, hence Perec, such as Kathy Acker,and I saw a ref to Diane di Prima whose poetry I like a lot. <br /><br />She seems an interesting woman and very talented. <br /><br />Semiotext(e) ... I don't think I would bother with all the theory associated<br />with Baudrillard and the more recent philosophers, but her books might be worth a whirl, weather and time permitting one day.
