we would see how dramatic and unpredictable this background

Moreover, it is a unified universe, a single unfolding event
of which we are an embedded part, a narrative of highly

a detective thriller with many crimes and last-minute escapes
than the impersonal account of astronomy textbooks.

Pinker’s suggestion that we read fiction because ' it supplies us with a
mental catalogue of the fatal conundrums we might face someday,' for
instance, Fodor replied, ' What if it turns out that, having just used the ring
that I got by kidnapping a dwarf to pay off the giants who built me my
new castle, I should discover that it is the very ring that I need in order to
continue to be immortal and rule the world? ' "
