A postnatural guide to avoidance of the Settling Out Camp

Richard Grant often teaches by example -- examples seldom drawn from slavishly literal rendition of the reality to which most of us subscribe. _the_Oldest_House_ is plausible; it is not hard to see it in our future, and our obligation to find it in these pages. A mountain, maybe; a maze of flora; a labyrinth in the finest style of Nabokov, Philip K. Dick; an illustration of the Organizing Principle that Dr. Hyata herself would be proud of: the picaresque messiah leading an improbable, contortedly subversive insurrection against the encroachment of the slick, authoritarian, mealy. Classic Grant: powerful images, poetic language, attention to nuance, detail, sincerely reflexive, wryly astute. No potatoes yet, but we've just ordered his most recent; here's hoping Monksboa survives into Grailnet and beyond, at least in some form.
