Two more about William Gibson
Two things:
1. After I saw William Gibson 2 weeks ago, I described him this way to Courtney:
He looks a great deal older than the last time I saw him. But that’s probably because he lives faster than the rest of us.
She told me that was blog-worthy, so there it is.
2. Also, I have been reading my signed copy of Spook Country. It’s great. In one of the later chapters, he just throws this out there:
She remembered Inchmale describing Stockholm syndrome, the fondness and loyalty one could supposedly come to feel for even the most brutal captor. She wondered whether she might be experiencing something like that, here. Inchmale thought that America had developed Stockholm syndrome toward its own government, post 9/11. (My emphasis.)
Fuck.
