Well, What Now?
A Series of Conversations
Welcome to Well, What Now?
This series of short videos continues The Personal History, Adventures, Experiences & Observations of Peter Leroy.
Episode 1: “At Loose Ends,” in which Peter feels that he’s adrift, lost in a fog of uncertainty and indecision, and Albertine tells him that he needs a project.
Episode 2: “Keep Moving,” in which Peter suggests that he could build a shed.
Episode 3, “Simulations,” in which Albertine asks, “Are we living in a simulation?” and Peter asks, “Where are the martinis?”
The Personal History is one large work of fiction composed of many interconnected parts. Its parts are the memoirs and collected works of a fictional character, Peter Leroy, who tells an alternative version of his life story; explores the effect of imagination on perception, memory, hope, and fear; holds a fun-house mirror to scenes of life in the United States; ruminates upon the nature of the universe and the role of human consciousness within it; and searches the painful world of time and place to find the niches where hilarity hides.
I’m making the entire Personal History available online for free—the whole thing, all twelve previously-published volumes, in installments, and the contemporary continuation, Well, What Now? I’m hoping that Substack can help it “find its audience.”
You can ensure that you never miss a future episode of Well, What Now? by getting a free subscription. (You can help support the work by choosing a paid subscription instead.)
