Sauce for the Gander

Paperback. Being Book Two of Say Nothing Till You Hear More. Also to be found in Collected Writings 2. An Update on Dante's Commedia. The Baldriggera butler Rory Devine is taken on a tour of the underworld. Much has been privatised since Dante’s time, but the same basic notion holds: World 'Statesmen' find things not entirely to their liking. They get what they chose in this life, except that it's what they chose for other people - e.g.shock, awe, other unpleasantries. They wallow in their own stercorous verbiage; exploiters starve, frauds are deceived, etc.
