It’s from this part of the book. It’s set in the 96th St apartment and features Bast and Rhoda. It’s worth tracking down for the illustrations.
I am enjoying the podcasts a lot, especially your guessing about what is going to happen to various characters.
Eigen is supposed to be Gaddis but despite the author’s intention, I think Gibbs, who is supposedly modeled on someone else, is the character that Gaddis inhabits.
