Iron Filings or Scribblings by Eva Brann

To introduce her book, Eva Brann calls up the image of Iron Filings as they settle themselves along the lines of force that form a field of influence around a bar magnet that has itself been allowed to settle itself in its natural direction. The whole configuration makes, by nature's wit, a suggestive figure for the thinking mind--at least of a cross-section in its life. These essays range from Ms. Brann's thoughts Of God, Of Novels, Of Booklessness, to, well, a surprising diversity of topics, the final one, fittingly Of Endings. Eva Brann thinks a thought and then thinks a thought at the other end of the pole of the first thought--hence the display of thought like iron filings around two ends of a magnet.
