Book of the New Sun/Fridge

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Fridge Brilliance

  • I got one courtesy of this site for the Book of the New Sun. The narrator discusses a guild of beast trainers, and gives the detail that supposedly they forsake women and take animals as spouses. While this actually wouldn't be too odd, since there is also a guild of torturers, the fanon theory that the narrator was confused about the term "animal husbandry" makes a lot of sense, given that there are several other Future Imperfect examples in the novel.- Jordan
