Well this thread is gonna die: What's your one great novel about?
Mine: The intricacies of communication. The minute body language and the beats and the slang and the tiny little things we try to read and convey when we try to talk or listen or lie or convey. The comfort of the dark. The beautiful purple hiding in the sky. The loss of true memory when the human mind twists it around half-remembered dreams and the vivid fantasies we repeat until we don't know if they're real. Loyalty and friendship and ideals... And astronauts with laser guns. Eating freeze-dried fish ice cream.
