Th- there's this sense that has haunted this country's literature since we had a distinctive literature of our own in English, that, that because of the way we came here to this continent, we being Americans of European heritage, and appropriated it from its, the people we found here, that there's a kind of vengeance [laughs] lying in store for us.

It's a really fascinating, bizarre, and disturbing sort of family of literary texts if you start to get into it, and one could place The Old Gods Waken into that, that milieu, as many others, to be sure.

And see if you can find a way to ask publishers to start publishing this book again, because I think people would like to read it at slightly less expensive prices.
