"In a place where words are unknown,
And eyes shine like candles at night,
And the face of God is a presence
Behind the mask of the sky--
At the tall black rock in the desert,
In the time of the final days.
[...]
Tchitcherine will reach the Kirghiz Light, but not his birth. He is
no aqyn, and his heart was never ready. [...] But in the Zone, hidden
inside the summer Zone, the Rocket is waiting. He will be drawn the
same way again. . . ."
Instrument of death, the Rocket counterfeits birth and enlightenment.
As they say about bureaucracy, the Chinese invented it but the French
perfected it, we might also say about the Rocket, first launched as a
weapon by the Nazis then later perfected by the Americans and
Soviets, with help from the same multinational corporations all
along. And we can thank Pynchon for bringing that to our attention.
