Finished this now and I thought it was very beautiful. I was really moved by the ghosts shifting between all of their future forms and little Willie's ascension. And there were some truly top-notch dick jokes. I'm not really very familiar with Lincoln or the history of the Civil War to say much about its depictions of the subjects.Chamberk posted:Regarding the reverend: It's hard to say! Given the spiritual bent of the novel I don't think he's doomed to an eternity in hell and the visions in the palace may have had a more complicated meaning and purpose. The important thing I took from it is that he's going to get what's coming to him but he's ready now. Franchescanado posted:Or the ghosts that spend their afterlife distracted in an orgy. Oh yeah, totally. I mean the fact that they're offering things that appeal to the desires they had in life rather than acceptance of the truth that they're dead confirms that.

I'm reading Delany's Dhalgren right now so it would be really convenient for me if everyone else also had to read Dhalgren
