Thanks. I really think the temp is about the subconscious fragment inside Ern: heat makes invisible writing in the book show up and when it cools down it disappears ... displaced space makes it cold ... coldbrook. So many possibilities but the chick scene with him pouring swan and sweetheart in the chocolate (chocolate greased the skid to hell) is I think at least one other possible reason things have gone wrong - cob and his girl in the mix. Late Wolfe is hardest Wolfe. So tricky.<br><br>On Sunday, September 30, 2018, Ab de Vos <<a href="mailto:foxyab@casema.nl">foxyab@casema.nl</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<p>Great work Marc.</p>
<p>Could it be relevant that time is not mentioned at all by
Roglich, instead temperature differentials are introduced when
space is displaced. Very weird. There must be some connection
between Roglichs digression about space, the cold and hot polarity
throughout the book and the plot. An indication that time is
involved is maybe that the dates don't fit.<br>

<p>The jungle world I found very inhospitable and constricted and
not a place to spend time. Could it not be a place like Father
Inure's garden? When people are going in and out of the
jungle-room temporal changes may be involved like coming back
before you entered. Then there is the river - or brook? - of time
in Urth of the New Sun.</p>
<p>I believe you also mentioned an interpretation like the one of <i>
Point Blank</i> (neo noir 1967) interpretation. Some critics
said the whole movie was a revenge fantasy of the dying man (Lee
Marvin) shot at the beginning. According to Wiki: "Some critics
consider <i>Point Blank</i>, "a haunted, dream-like film that
draws upon the spatial and temporal experiments of modernist
European art cinema",<sup><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_Blank_%281967_film%29#cite_note-16" target="_blank">[16]</a></sup>
especially the "time-fractured" films of French director <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alain_Resnais" title="Alain
Resnais" target="_blank">Alain Resnais</a>.<sup><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_Blank_%281967_film%29#cite_note-17" target="_blank">[17]"</a></sup></p>
<p>The names bother me as well: all those Co..'s and the fact that
Payne and Fish are not mentioned in the list. Why not? Are they
two known characters in disguise?</p>
<p>I found Camestros Felapton's remarks interesting as a partial
list of Wolfean tropes stretching back to Cerberus and not only
characterizing his later work.</p>
