Shorties (Cecilia Gentili Profiled, New Music by the Antlers, and more)
Cecilia Gentili discussed her new memoir with Vulture.
At first, Gentili struggled to figure out how to translate live storytelling to the page. “The beauty of my stories is that they’re never the same. The meat of the story is the same, but depending on who my public is or what they react to, I might keep pulling at something,” she says. “Telling stories without an audience seemed meaningless to me. I need an audience, but I couldn’t picture who my audience would be because anyone could be reading it.” She had to direct her stories to somebody in order to write them, and that’s when it hit her: letters. They could totally work as letters.
