The mental illnesses? The big question of how they will get out? Will they be able to escape? Whatever it is, asylums make for great settings in a book. I don’t know what it is with asylums that attracts me so much. ![]() ![]() In this essay, we’ll highlight a few of Snyder’s key points about the politics of eternity.
