Abstract

Excerpt from essay by Dick Goody: Above all, Robinson is interested in the seminal properties of substances, and in the monolithic thing, the single salient idea that will reveal everything - as she puts it, "the macrocosm in the microcosm." She talks about blood and milk as being seminal fluids - simple yet complex. Simplicity and complexity fascinate her. All the paradoxes and issues embodied in interpretations of what these two liquids can incite -the red and white - keep Robinson's imagination energized.
