For years my "intellectual" friends ("intellectual" in quotes because it is a social group rather than a state of being, and I wanted it to be clear I was talking about the social/academic tradition/group rather than the state of being an educated thinker. The really truly great thinkers and artists I personally know--and I know a good many--don't have time to play "intellectual" games. They also don't seem to have a problem with their faith, which is stylish among "intellectuals") have discussed off and on the "Great Mormon Novel" and why it hasn't ever appeared.
This guy pretty much settled that debate for me.
What a relief!
