We began to breed Doctor Fish and Garra rufa 4 years ago,and quickly sold to many countries including Call over the Southeast Asian with great quantity. 　　Professional technicians and specialized facilities will ensure the breeding, feeding and improvement of Chinese <a href="http://www.spa-fish.com" rel="nofollow">doctor fish</a> and Garra Rufa. Moreover, technical consultancy, direction and training for the clients are also available. 　　We will use air-express to deliver the fish, which will ensure that our clients receive the fish in the shortest time while at the lowest death rate, and that the fish can get used to the new places and serve their customers as soon as possible. At the same time, we will provide necessary materials for our clients to learn and master the basic knowledge of Chinese Doctor Fish and Garra Rufa, in the hope of better and longer service. After the confirmation of purchasing and payment, we will deliver the fish to the client in five work ing days and offer related technical direction and consultancy. The affairs related to exportation and Customs clearance must be well negotiated befo re payment.

Your project sounds quite interesting. I'm not sure whether mocking critical jargon sounds like fascinating fun or like shooting fish in a barrel - probably both. Are you familiar with Christine Brooke-Rose's "Amalgamemnon" ? A classics take on a similar clever deflating.

My creative project is a thriller set amongst the murphoisie of Irish London. I wanted to interrogate the macho conventions of the thriller and hit upon the idea of using a persona, Dr Una O'Symon (an anagram of 'Anonymous') to conduct this interrogation in highly threoretical, jargon ridden terms taken from the Theorosphere. There's a real tension between CW &#38; Critical Theory. How can a writer trained to write academically in English Depts be expected to make links with their work and the work of other writers? The Death Of The Author, The Intentional Fallacy, and natural reticence mitigate against one writing abt one's work in the way lettrists are trained to write. 'What were you trying to do in this text?' is not a legitimate question in theoretical terms - how do I know? I was just responding to the promptings of my subconscious, my position in the socio-political hierarchy, the dictates of class and gender and race... Theory's project is to read the Context and not just the Text. I thought Dr Una O'Symon - for all the parodic hilarity I/she started to generate - would be a - ah - novel way to do this. But I came up against a lot of opposition from the Faculty. I intend to write a dissertation - 30,000 words - where at least an echo of this approach can still be heard. I did give a paper on 'The Interesting Case Of Dr Una O'Symon'... She may still turn up to the Viva! I'd be interested to hear what folks Down Under make of this... You seem to be a little more relaxed abt this kind of postmodern playfulness.... Which is actually very Irish (Swift, Sterne, Mangan, Joyce, Flann...)...

‘What were you trying to do in this text?’ is not a legitimate question in theoretical terms - how do I know? I was just responding to the promptings of my subconscious, my position in the socio-political hierarchy, the dictates of class and gender and race…

Theory’s project is to read the Context and not just the Text.

I did give a paper on ‘The Interesting Case Of Dr Una O’Symon’…

She may still turn up to the Viva!

I’d be interested to hear what folks Down Under make of this…

You seem to be a little more relaxed abt this kind of postmodern playfulness….

Which is actually very Irish (Swift, Sterne, Mangan, Joyce, Flann…)…

Looking forward to hearing from you,
