But what of the gunslinger's murky past? God; I know so little。 The revolution that topples the gunslinger's 〃world of light〃? I don't know。 Roland's final confrontation with Marten; who seduces his mother and kills his father? Don't know。 The deaths of Roland's patriots; Cuthbert and Jamie; or his adventures during the years between his ing of age and his first appearance to us in the desert?
I don't know that; either。 And there's this girl; Susan。 Who is she? Don't know。
Except somewhere inside; I do。 Somewhere inside I know all of those things; and there is no need of an argument; or a synopsis; or an outline (outlines are the last resource of bad fiction writers who wish to God they were writing masters' theses)。 When it's time; those things and their relevance to the gunslinger's questwill roll out as naturally as tears or laughter。 And if they never get around to rolling out; well; as Confucius once said; five hundred million Red Chinese don't give a shit。
I do know this: at some point; at some magic time; there will be a purple evening (an evening made for romance!) when Roland will e to his dark tower; and approach it; winding his horn。。; and if I should ever get there; you'll be the first to know。
