Sandysbookaday (taking a midwinter break)

Hi Jacob. I really loved The Liars' Asylum. I was intrigued by the town by the name of Oblivion. Does it actually exist? I have always said that if ever I got to name a town, I would call it Denial.

Jacob M. Appel I believe there is a town named "Denial Bay" in Australia. And of course, as they say in the Borscht Belt, there is the De Nile in Egypt. Alas, I don't believe there are any Oblivions yet. (If they ever give me the naming rights, that's the new name I'm assigning to the town I grew up in.)

Thanks for the kind words!

Jacob
