So where are you?
In a galaxy far far away.
No. Where are you really?
Tralfamadore.
Isn’t that where …?
Yes, where Billy Pilgrim went.
That time traveller from ‘Slaughterhouse Five’?
Yes, he went there on his days off.
His days off? From where?
Reality. Reality bites, you know.
But what if you never came back?
Like Hugh Conway in ‘Lost Horizons’? Dorothy in Oz ?
Yes.
Would it really matter? You’d be where you want to be. Would you even want to go back?
Have you a favourite fantasy place ? Which fantasy world would you live in if you could? What if you couldn’t come back?
Sometimes I think maybe I’m already trapped in some unknown fantasy book world where little makes sense.
So it goes…

okay. I thought the phrase ‘so it goes’ is repeated throughout the novel. Will have to check. If you haven’t read it, it’s a great read. it’s pretty short too 🙂

I guess the world of Game of Thrones would not be on top of that list… Maybe Wonderland? Looks like fun.

Wonderland would be great or Never Never Land. Always been fascinated with the Peter Pan stories:)
