EDNOTE. One of Carolyn's messages was garbled. Sorry about that! SES]
In response to Jerry's comment:
>Quite different, in my view, from a sufferer from MPD having an
internal
conversation. The former happens a lot in reality as well as fiction
(smacking oneself on the forehead, "Idiot!"); the latter is
unprecedented
Carolyn's reply should read:
Probably so - - but this is a fiction after all, neither history nor
law,
so you can't hold VN to precedents, can you? He's allowed to invent.
