Absolute Music, with Jonathan Geltner

The second of a two-part conversation with author Jonathan Geltner--about his highly-acclaimed debut novel, Absolute Music--a literary novel about fantasy and faith, among other things. 

Among other things, we discuss:

• Mythologizing or reenchanting Cincinnati and Pittsburgh
• The Inklings, of course
• Music
• Art, order, and chaos
• D&D Campaigns in the Middle of a Realist Novel
• Humphrey Carpenter's The Inklings
• If the Inklings were a D&D Party...
