I was until I saw this:
"according to Krakauer The Passenger will place science in the foreground. “It's everywhere,” he says. Just as the author went through an “Appalachian phase” and a “Southwest phase”—the terms used by scholars to describe his early and middle works—Krakauer says the new book is going to be “full-blown Cormac 3.0—a mathematical [and] analytical novel.”"
this is gonna be his "A Fable" baka
Finally, something fresh to troll about. "Muh violence" was really wearing thin.

>Mary Sue commits suicide because muh burden of genius
