  • サマリー

  • The Cat gets spoilerific in search of all things Arthurian with special guest, legendary New York Times bestselling author and award-winning comic book writer, Dan Abnett. While Aaron shepherds a coming out and Kaaron is betrayed by a cheap trick, Joseph ruins Lunar Park for everybody. Dan goes to Glastonbury on a quest for the holy grail. Fictional truths are discussed, as is reality as a device, the great conceit of modern literary fiction, and the amazing lie that everything is true (but is it permitted?). Also, autobiographical truths buried in fictions, the fictionalising of reality to make it readable, and the different ways we read stories knowing they’re fiction versus assuming they are, in fact, true. The value of a sense of quest. The extraordinary adventure of observing the everyday. Dan chooses wisely.

    Librettos and Fisher Kings conceptualised in this episode include:

    • Brett Easton Ellis’s Lunar Park and The Shards
    • The Coen Brothers’ Fargo
    • Daniel Petrie’s Sybil
    • M John Harrison’s The Sunken Lands Begin To Rise Again and his 'anti-memoir’ Wish I Was Here
    • Jorge Luis Borges’s The Aleph
    • Michael Haneke’s Funny Games
