All prose is fiction


“It occurs to me that to read everything, including the news, like a novel—to be cognizant and accepting of discontinuities and conflicts, of multiple interpretations, of symbol that sits alongside more objective truths—is maybe the skill we most need to employ in navigating the world of news today, when there is so much news, and so few ways of making it all cohere.”

Take the most fun, yet incomprensible Nolan movie you know.


Now take *that* fun and incomprehensibility and turn it up to 11.
While lengthening it ten times


And you get #TheLockedTomb
Reading the #TLT series has been the most fun I’ve had this year.
