  The Philosophical Novel
  “'Can a novelist write philosophically?' The Philosophical Novel - http://nyti.ms/fppaHL via @nytimes”
  At first blush, all novels are philosophical in so far as they are consistent. The question is inappropriate.
  Formal philosophy may have no place in the novel. It really has no place in life. The truth of a proposition against some arbitrary standard is a trivial matter when compared to its utility in understanding a condition and forming a process of resolution.
