Chapters that read like short stories (MLO ch. 15 - The Silver Walks)
The are those moments in Gibson’s prose where suddenly a chapter, or even a run of paragraphs, is forming a capsule inside the novel that feels like a perfectly crafted independent short story. I just experienced this in chapter 15 of Mona Lisa Overdrive.
Are there other such moments that you noticed ? What are your favorite ‘stories inside stories’?
