Today, I am talking to Scott Johnston, a Charlottesville novelist, about his latest work, “The Sanderson’s Fail Manhattan.” The novel is set in Manhattan, not Virginia. “The Sanderson’s Fail Manhattan” takes place in New York City, but it easily could have been set in Fairfax County. So, this reviewer who seems to think I’m fantasizing all this stuff isn’t paying attention to reality himself. Bacon: We have been talking about wokeness and critical theory. And you said critical theory is about dividing the oppressed and the oppressor, but the reason behind that is the foundational tenet of critical theory is that there’s no such thing as objective truth.
