Sobre IBD

We can view Blevins as contemporary with Melville’s Confidence Man. Or perhaps with Roberto Bolano’s The Savage Detectives. Kathy Acker? Or, my favorite: B. Traven’s The Death Ship with its motto above the entry to the engine room: 'Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.' That quote was applied by Dante in The Inferno for Pope Celestine V whose cowardice 'opened the door where evil entered the Church.' For Blevins, it applies to the Maga Ship of State.
