It is interesting enough, but not great, IMHO. In fact, Wikipedia says
that he said it was "his least favorite novel". I had not read it
before and I found this surprising. But I love the title. The first
time I saw the Milky Way whilst camping at Lassen National Part, I was
reminded of this title. When you are up at 8000+ feet and the air is
calm and clear, the stars ARE like dust.

I am currently rereading Glen Cook's "She is the Darkness". I am
enjoying it more than I did the first time.
Did you ever hear the story about Saul Alinsky's influence on Hillary
Clinton and Barack Obama? If not you can giggle it.
Saul supposedly said something along the lines of "The very first
radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it
so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom -- Lucifer."
Although the modern words may belong to Saul, the sentiment
doesn't. It dates back millennia to the start of Gnosticism.
_The Hidden Life is Best! - Francis Bacon and the Gnostic English
Empire_
talks about such topics (but not Clinton and Obama specifically).
There's free audio available at
<https://thehiddenlifeisbest.com/episodes>
Long story short, all of the free episodic excerpts were recently heard
by me.
Danke,
unless "She is the Darkness" is some kind of reference to Hillary
Clinton. In which case it is still not welcome since I try to keep my
stuff non political.
