For the first time to my knowledge Handke uses the word holy and says I believe in that sort of transfiguration. In the essay on Tiredness after the detailed remembering of the whole village helping to thresh and store the hay into the barn. we-tiredness, the past transfigures
this telling is a pure picture equals in shared tiredness united purified carpenters putting up roofs a people of tiredness the music of clairaudient tiredness
(he decided he wanted to be a writer around age 13, at 23 or 24 he published The Hornets and dropped out of university)
there is no picturable tiredness among the middle class they regard it as a misbehavior like going barefoot (Kim Jones in Madrid as nanny for Pedro and Marga!)
Ray Davies sang I'm Not Like Everybody Else The Kinks godfather of british pop now 82 also knighted

I won't take all that they hand me down,
And make out a smile, though I wear a frown,
And I'm not gonna take it all lying down,
'Cause once I get started I go to town.
'Cause I'm not like everybody else,
Oh no...
I'm not like everybody else,
I'm not like everybody else, no..
I'm not like everybody eeelse.
And I don't want to live my life like everybody else,
And I don't want to be destroyed like everybody else,
And I don't wanna get a job, like everybody else,
'Cause I'm not like everybody else,
I'm not like everybody else.
You see...
Darling, you know that I love you true,
And i'll do anything that you want me to,
I'll even,
Confess all my sins like you want me to,
But there's one thing that I can't do for you,
'Cause I'm not like everybody else,
(What did i say ?...)
I'm not like everybody else.
(How did i say it ?...)
I'm not like everybody else,
(One more time..)
I'm not like everybody else.
Like everybody else..
And I don't want to live my life like everybody else,
And I won't wanna be destroyed like everybody else,
And I don't wanna get a job, like everybody else,
'Cause I'm not like everybody else,
What did i say ?..
I'm not like everybody else.
Like everybody else.
Everybody else,
Everybody else,
Like everybody else.
Everybody...
Everybody else...
