But if you trust in it and lend it your ears, you can enter a kind of lucid trance. This principle is one DFW was aware of, the humanity within expanded repetitious blandness. Chekhovian grey language; stories told ”the way one person relates to another the most important things in his life, slowly and yet without a break, in a slightly subdued voice."

His prime targets, Colonel Edward Whalley and his son-in-law, Colonel William Goffe have fled to America where they are hidden by Puritan sympathisers.Divining the Elder Scolls [ sic] [Do not change this to Scrolls.

A fictional memoir drafted by Whalley is an excellent device for filling in details about Cromwell’s rise - and fall.
