i am well aware of the fact that no action takes place in this narrative, this novelistic narrative, if you will - the novel is, after all, the most intimate, the truest history, so that i scarcely understand why some people are outraged to have the bible called a novel, when such a desdignation actually sets it above some mere chronicle or another. in short, nothing happens. but i hope that this is because everything that takes place happens, and, instead of coming to pass, and passing away, remains forever, like the lakes and the mountains and the blessed simple souls fixed firmly beyond faith and despair, the blessed souls who, in the lakes and the mountains, outside history, in their divine novel, take refuge.
