Other Related Matters

Muindi Fanuel Muindi's first three books, collected in the volume titled Triptych, asked the question, "How do I become what I am?" Other Related Matters, his fourth book, asks the immediate follow up question: "Knowing how I become what I am, how do I relate to others?" The two texts that form the core of Other Related Matters approach the question of "relating to others" from two different "logical" perspectives. The first of the core texts, "A Genealogy of Sociality", is a philosophical essay approaching the question from a "sociological" perspective, attending to "social relations". The second, "I-and-Other, Child-and-Mother", is compendium of concepts approaching the question from a "psychological" perspective, attending to "personal relations". Muindi's first three books invited his readers to over-hear internal monologues and confidential dialogues, with Muindi surreptitiously cluing his readers in on puzzling idioms, in-jokes, and subtexts. With Other Related Matters, his fourth book, Muindi is making a public statement: Muindi is begging to be heard rather than over-heard. Eschewing the esotericism of his Triptych without sacrificing any of his eccentricities, Muindi is asking the question of "relating to others" in and through a collection of texts that play at being relatable.
