Interview Notes For Reviewers

Wasn’t Jackie Notter murdered at the end of Pop Secrets? When did she write this book?
According to the opening sentence of Pop Secrets she was. Either her brother found this manuscript, or she’s not dead and is hiding out at Brixton’s new house. I like to think it’s the later.

Aren’t you trivializing mirror-touch synesthesia?
Absolutely not. This is a fictional hyper form of the condition.

Is Don Trentino a real Sicilian mafia boss?
Oh lord no. He is fictional. If he resembles any real Sicilian mafia bosses it is just a horrible coincidence.
