tumhalad, I've already said all I intend to say about CoH and your notions on the interpretation thereof on the "Turin the Hopeless" thread, so I will not repeat myself here. But I'd like a clarification: in what way do you mean the book "
begs questions" about its author? Is that even possible?

A review or analysis might do this, but surely not the book itself.
Or do you mean it
raises questions? Not the same thing.
As for your main topic–I rather think this belongs in the "Movies" forum (where in fact the question has been
raised more than once, as I recall).
