A not easily identifiable person writes a LiveJournal essay on what he/she calls two libertarian pseudo-novels – Henry Hazlitt’s Time Will Run Back and J. Neil Schulman’s The Rainbow Cadenza. I think the writer is spot on in terms of the Hazlitt book, which is one of the dullest works of ‘fiction’ that I’ve ever read, but I can’t remmber Schulman’s book being as much a ‘p o r n’ novel as alluded to in the review. Sure, there’s sex in the book (some of it not very pleasant), and it’s been almost two decades since I read the book, but I thought it was a decent work of fiction then. I’ll have to re-read the novel to refresh my memory, but I came away thinking more about the musical sections than the erotica or sex scenes.
