Thinking about "the invisible' in AtD

[Mark Kohut]

>From the beginning, when we are told that perhaps certain everyday pleasant
experiences--early on the airship-- are
so taken for granted (effectively) they are 'invisible' thru to Lew
stepping invisibly to "the side of the day"....(and beyond this scene too).
Can one read such as a way to find moments outside of the state of siege
that is the world in this novel? This and the moments of 'grace' (which
might be simply NOTICING the invisibility?)

I might argue that this part of TRP's vision is one of his most
conservative (in some lines of thought). It reminds me of Edmund Burke on
how regular citizens just want to live and eat and work in peace, and that
that should be a baseline in political "theory'
or pronouncement----or rule, in his political theorizing.
