This is pretty much the same case with Nabokov. Their opinions are interesting in light of their own works but are a bit too quixotic.

Best looking writer is Audrey Horne. I also like that, based off her publicity photos, she dresses like Nikolai Gogol all of the time.

Alternate universe, American Indian, Vietnam vet goes AWOL and starts his journey back to his home on Catalina Island to reunite with his wife and son. On the way there he is sidetracked dozens of times in a series of bizarre adventures incorporating folk lore and myth of Vietnam, Indonesia, Bali, Australia, all other Pacific islands, monstrous whales, and labyrinthine libraries.
On Easter Island our hero encounters a sort of Lord of the Files situation...

Once home, our hero has to contend with all sorts of rivals. Other natives, mortal and demigod, Cowboys, surfer dudes, soldiers, business moguls, and Hollywood idols.
