Heavy indeed, but what to make of it? Nothing at all. Singer's life seems just as queer and unstrung to him in episode 22 as it did in the first. Likely it will stay that way. His father, who has a better grip on things, remarks: "Sometimes I stand back and look at you as though you're a piece of sculpture I'm carving." Singer protests that the carving is finished. His father agrees, perhaps ruefully: "There's a point when it's too late to change the concept. There...

On another occasion he told newsmen in a background briefing that he did not mind if there were Ku Klux Klansmen on the Mississippi desegregation advisory committee. Asked by a reporter if he could print that remark. Mardian nodded: "Yes-if you print...
...ludicrous spills on his bike. Halsy is forever scratching himself, belching, boozing, caroming off lesbians-all the while covering past and future with a threadbare carpet of lies. Sometimes he talks like a daylight cowboy, sometimes like an Okie Voltaire ("Once, it's cool . . . twice, it's queer...
