Watching WC on one, writing here on second.
Great, exciting brooding on new "novel," quotes because it won't read like a traditional narrative. Happens in the landscape of the mind, where time and space are awash.
Three major characters: CJ, Author, Reader. Two major plot lines ... the "story" and the "process" of writing the story. Move in time from death of Socrates to Custer's Last Stand to the present, where Danny White Bird has taken hostages at the Whitman Mission and is in a standoff with the FBI. CJ becomes his negotiator.
Two huge themes: does history matter? does literature matter?
Layered, surrealistic, dialectical. Candy for the mind. Sadness for the heart.
O Socrates! O Sitting Bull!
But! ... do I still have the chops to pull this off????
