It's a pretty good band name, amiright?? It's also a composite of Chapter 25 of Miranda July's All Fours, at least according to these two intrepid podcasters. Amy & Tommy use the chapter as a jumping off point for a discussion about the staying power of monogamy, the way that jealousy can act like gasoline on the spark of desire, and the non-primacy of marriage.
Did Miranda July use numerology at all for her book? Why so much triangle energy when the book is called All Fours? And why does it take a committed relationship to nurture a journeying soul? Ponder these questions and more!
