ENTERTAINING IDEAS began as a reading exercise: an effort to perform a 'good reading' of Elizabeth Jane Howard's The Long View(1956), and to think about what a 'good' short reading of a long novel might mean, what it might look like or read like. As a translator, Kate Briggs accepts that writing out a reading involves change, tampering with what seems perfect, and doing so from necessity, as a way of learning how exactly it works. She has changed Howard's book. Her exercise changed too, expanding unexpectedly into a set of reflections on writing backwards, living forwards, and entertaining ideas.
