Post blogger Michael Conniff ventures into terra incognito with his latest excursion into the whys and wherefores of the so-called Supernovel. “Milan Kundera likes to say the novelist must discover what only the novel can discover—but that was then, but the so-called Supernovelist has the same job albeit with a toolkit that just went from a putty knife to a chain saw with all the attachments,” he blogs. “Think about it: anything digital is on the table of a work that never ends and that anybody can contribute to using all kinds of material. Chaos, in other words, and that’s no theory.”
