@jeffvandermeer I can't remember the last time I was this excited for a novel!
My wife just finished Acceptance, so she'll have the new book in the daytime and I'll have it in the evenings.
@jonathanstea I met a neurologist who worked closely with Szasz. "What was he like?" I asked.
"He was an arrogant fucking loon who was incapable of listening to anyone—especially patients."
@kibblesmith I think all the time about how being a gross pig no one can bear to be with is excellent spycraft. Once Lamb starts farting, critical thought stops.
@62_grandpa@TheAVClub Right. Especially since the mystical "near death" phenomena appear to be a byproduct of hypoxic brains. Test pilots report the same phenomena...and they were never "near death".
If you want proof, this ain't it.
