“… What is your dream—your ideal? 
What is your News from Nowhere, or, rather,

to the old pasteboard toy with a dozen bits of colored glass
for contents? And, most important of all, can you present it
in a narrative or romance which will enable me to pass an
idle hour not disagreeably? How, for instance, does it compare
in this respect with other prophetic books on the shelf?”

— Hudson, W. H.. A Crystal Age , 1887.
Open Road Media, Kindle Edition, page 2.

A related cultural note suggested by the New York Times  obituary today

(a Friday the Thirteenth) and is described by the Times  as a late-life
partner of "eightfold-way" physicist Murray Gell-Mann —

* A reference to the 2-column 4-row matrix (a "brick") that underlies
the patterns in the Miracle Octad Generator  of R. T. Curtis. The only
connection of this eight-part matrix to Gell-Mann's "Eightfold Way"
that I know of is simply the number 8 itself.
