The Ishmael Community: Questions and Answers
The Question (ID Number 10)...
How did Ishmael get himself installed in an office building? How did he get himself out of the office and into the carnival?
...and the response:
Ishmael did these things SOMEHOW. if I had been writing a plot-driven form such as a murder mystery or an action-thriller, I would have had to fill in these "plot holes"; as it is, I don't really care how he did these things (and neither do most readers). It's imaginable that he did them SOMEHOW---and that suffices.
