"Just found this book at a cute little used bookstore in downtown Asheville. I’ve never read any Lafferty but I’m big into sci-fi so here we are (just now reading that I shouldn’t start here but I already have; so it goes!). With that said - What even is this book?

and rightdoing there is a field.
I'll meet you there.
When the soul lies down in that grass
the world is too full to talk about.”
