An amusing snippet of dreaming that fits in so well...

Someone's shooting off firecrackers. So much for that ban. Monk goes out to take a look, and why isn't he surprised? Of course, its mother making all that pseudo-festive racket. It's dark outside, and I stand next to her in the front yard as she continues to shoot off her fireworks.

I tell her she shouldn't blow them all at once. She agrees. And just in time. We see a neighbor woman in bathrobe stepping outside her door across the street, with her hand on her hip and obviously not feeling festive.

Mother snickers and we go inside.

Tom Wolfe is switching publishers. Apparently "I Am Charlotte Simmons" didn't do very well in sales, and this led to some dissension over the amount of the advance on his next book. "Charlotte Simmons" is the only book of his that I have read, and, of course, I loved it. I really should check out some of his other novels, but I am not in the mood for any novels these days, getting my absorbing narratives from recent political histories, finding that "What It Takes" has to be one of the great American classics.
