our next (un)adaptable title this module is wittgenstein’s mistress by albany’s greatest novelist david markson. tulsa has returned and he has stories about the honorable judge matt erdely to share. we discuss how wittgenstein’s mistress is hard to summarize as we talk about its distortion of time, profound sadness, and the meaning of language within the text. we talk about david foster wallace’s writing about the novel, markson’s frequent inclusion of menstruation in the text, and whether or not there’s any possible way to adapt this to film. tulsa embarks on an ambitious project. maybe.
