AtD and 9/11

[Ghetta Life]

Don't you think he did "make a statement about modern America" in GR.  And 
he already did a current time novel in VL (my least favorite).  If you mean 
couldn't he write a novel about Bush, Iraq, terrorists, war-mongers, and so 
on, I'm sure he could.  But then it wouldn't be a work that he would have 
spent years researching for background.  I think he strives for more 
enduring, big-picture, and more abstract issues.
