Not P: The Couselor

[rich]

whatever did cormac go? a couple of weak screenplays, one disguised as a
novel, which to be honest, was way too heavy on the ponderous flood of my
son is the messiah, again and again. at least the cannibals were
interesting. imagine being a member of that group? dare I hope for another
Suttree. thats the only reason Im sticking around. One's hopes he's not
leaving all those ideas in the canteen mess in Santa Fe with all those
scientists. I imagine those are interesting discussions. but could I
understand any of it? Suttree had that mad women and Knoxville's best bums
and drunks (are there any better descriptions of alcoholics living in cars
and freezing to death?). Some bits in there match anything in Absalom
Absalom. wherever did Cormac go? has he too lost something since mellowing
out with a family? who knows
