Nostalgia's absent presence is deftly captured in your works and words. The tension between the much sought after shiny, happy perfection of contemporary existence, and this sombre, brooding counterside is something which keeps one alive! Have just added you to the places to which I plot 'Passages to' on my own blog ... http://passages.blog.com/
Kind regards, Jacky

Dear Svetlana: What a wonderful gift to us all! Especially the pieces on Derrida--really moving. But all the rest too. More, more, more ... Hayden

Dear Professor Boym I am currently reading THE FUTURE OF NOSTALGIA AND I find it thus far a wonderful and vital book.
I look forward to the chapters On Joe Brodsky and Nabokov just to name two luminious beings
Upon completion of this splendid volume I will write again.
With Admiration,
Joe Orlando

This is a very interesting and artistic site. Svetlana Boym has an amazing ability to play around with her artwork and make the end result very beautiful. I'm sorry about your tragic broken bones, but I think it is very optimistic of you to create such original art in a challenging situation such as having a broken leg. Good luck in all that you do! Your loving niece

Firstly, let me just say I so enjoyed your talk at the Knitting Factory last night. You mentioned Freud's "Uncanny" and one's feelings toward that place we call "home." If you don't know it already, I think you might enjoy the quick read that is Nick Tosches' "The Last Opium Den." It opens, "You see, I needed to go to hell. I was, you might say, homesick."
