A short tale, written in 1960. Considering language as history and concerning an egg. This has the tones of the treasure adventures of very early spec fiction that always seem feature an antagonist student or nephew or the like in the race against our hero. Good finish to this one.
There is not much real gravity here in evidence in this self-obsessed text about a writer...
Wow! Fans of Flannery O'Connor will love this unique picaresque novel. Highly recommended.
