I have never read anybody with the style of MK, anywhere, ever. It's not just the style, though, it's the style being (occasionally) married to the solid intellectual analysis. It's a stunning combination.

I'm thinking a novel written in such a style would have the potential to be considered brilliant, groundbreaking, a work of genius, etc., by at least a sizable fraction of the literary reviewers out there. Might make a few bucks too. I think it should be a relatively short novel, though, to give the readers a break. Maybe 150 pages, tops.

US actor George Takei is to wed his long-term partner after California lifted its ban on same-sex marriage.

Takei, 71, best known for playing Mr Sulu in Star Trek, said he and Brad Altman were going through the "delicious dilemma" of where to marry.

The actor and 54-year-old Mr Altman have been together for 21 years.

"We can have the dignity, as well as all the responsibilities, of marriage. We embrace it all heartily," Takei wrote on his website.
