Its central conceit is that our consciousness of death and our capacity for yearning are conditioned by one another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe pieces collected in \u003cem\u003eSchopenhauer’s Dog\u003c\/em\u003e aim to map out the contours of this conditioning and, by doing so, glimpse the endlessly bountiful terrain where grief and desire materialize concurrently. In the gardenways of the human spirit — wherever these affects pass over and through us in their dialectical dance — a shrewd cultivator might encounter not only the most magnificent flowers, but also the equally beautiful, decomposed matter from which they grow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAndy (they\/he) is a musician, bartender, and philosophy instructor.
