"He doesn't do it all the time, but he can do it at any time; we hardly
notice any more, except when it's flagged as you've done here. And when he
does, he (1) blows away like tissue all the good, sound advice ever given to
writers about consistency of voice/PoV, or at least the necessity of
signaling changes... and (2) opens up nifty epistemological and even
ontological questions about what constitutes the "inside" and "outside" of
consciousness in fictional narrative."
 
Another whole book or two in this packed paragraph, imho and can lead
to asking----is THIS what is meant by 'postmodern" and 
what does this say about...............the world as we know it? 
 
 
I love "but he can do it at any time".....yes, so true, so unsaid until now in
my reading/thinking
