The Outlaw Bookseller, Stephen E. Andrews: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcpaYAc_kJbYBP66YQpxRnw

The paragraph from The Dream Master:

"He could remember a time when he had loved snow, when it had reminded him of novels by Thomas Mann and music by Scandinavian composers. In his mind now, though, there was another element from which it could never be wholly dissociated. He could visualize so clearly the eddies of milk-white coldness that swirled about his old manual-steer auto, flowing into its fire-charred interior to rewhiten that which had been blackened; so clearly--as though he had walked toward it across a chalky lake-bottom--it, the sunken wreck, and he, the diver--unable to open his mouth to speak, for fear of drowning; and he knew, whenever he looked upon falling snow, that somewhere skulls were whitening. But nine years had washed away much of the pain, and he also knew that the night was lovely."
p. 18
