I suspect that this book will be of interest to those of the new faceless generation, what others will make of it I can’t guess. No time like the present to begin. The creation of this blog was no mere coincidence, thus it will serve as a basis of comparison for the novel. Currently I’m dubbing the idea Themes and Theatrics, reminiscence itself. On this historic day, I feel the need to end with something epic, and yet (Comment on this)
