Here’s how dumb my mind is. Sometimes I worry that having my favorite author as Laszlo Krasznahorkai ruins my book nerd hipster cred.
Odd neurosis notwithstanding, it’s pretty exciting that my favorite author is coming out with a new novel.

The actors finish and leave the stage. There is a smattering of applause from the half-full theater, and the actors just keep walking. In full costume out the back door into the street and home. The applause intensifies in the theater, the audience attempting to call them back, to restart the action of the stage.
They will clap all night, but no one is there to hear them. The stage door stands open to the alley, empty.
He’s always been a ringleader, ever since he was a kid and he convinced a group of kids that trick-or-treating would be more lucrative in July because other kids wouldn’t be out competing for candy.

but he’s not. deep within those sunburned eye sockets, far behind the balls, he’s figured it out. the tests are merely for the thrill of affirmation.
”a place 4 higher beings”

A man who will be great (or terrible). Described solely in terms of the monument that will be constructed in his honor, or in the memorials of those who opposed him.
A wallflower. Lonely and horny, caught in the thrall of various bodies at this party. It’s a helpless arousal, an impotent erection.
The end of the world is predicted. Go alone? Disbelieve? Party? At the appointed time, the Earth disappears. Everyone left behind in a very non-biblical way. Stuck in space, unable to move, watching the moon, free of our gravity, fall toward the sun.
