Short mention in Joey Goebel's novel "The Anomalies"--

"'No, Reverend. I am not a rock and roll cliche. I thought you would have noticed that by now. What I mean is that I want my heaven to be here on land. After all, as Vladimir Nabokov wrote, "The hereafter for all we know may be an eternal state of excruciating insanity." So why not have heaven on dirt?'"

(MacAdam/Cage, 2003, page 78)




For which cause, right glad I am, that I have begun the history of myself in the way I have done; and that I am able to go on, tracing everything in it, as Horace says, ab Ovo.
