every time something batshit crazy happens in this book, i think "surely it can't get any more unhinged or morally bankrupt than this," and then, of course, it does

Frost Dancers: A Story of Hares

René Rio
René Rio is on page 74 of 106 of The Fire Next Time (Vintage International)
"From my own point of view, the fact of the Third Reich alone makes obsolete forever any question of Christian superiority, except in technological terms. White people were, and are, astounded by the holocaust in Germany. They did not know that they could act that way. But I very much doubt whether black people were astounded — at least, in the same way."

René Rio is 47% done with Frost Dancers: A Story of Hares
"He had an animal earthy way about him. The arable smell of silage and kale clung to his clothes, and his grizzled hoary chin and unkempt hair full of wayward seedlings made him a less artificial creature than most men. [...] Skelter felt that if the tractor-man stood still for more than a short period of time, grass would begin to grow in his seams."
