Well, NOW you've got me interested. That's one of my all-time favorites.

yes!  I've only read the excerpt online of Wolfe's new book but having read 
Mieville's I can already tell they work in shadowing each other.  I 
recently read Wolfe's There Are Doors for the first time and it also is very 
Kafka-esque (referencing Kafka's works explicitly) and the excerpt of TLA 
reminded me of that earlier work as well.  -DOJP
