摘要:Decades ago, I wrote a novel 931 pages long, which began in 1773 with Master Billy Clark playing in his nursery in the Virginia Colony and ended in 1806 with the grizzled explorer William Clark arriving in Kentucky at the end of his expedition to the Pacific with Meriwether Lewis. Apparently even that wasn’t enough. The first fan letter about that seemingly endless book said: “Will there be a sequel? I love William Clark! He’s amazing!”
