Day 2579
Day 2579 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. For four seconds Truman Beaumont's radio carried a voice describing exactly where Truman Beaumont was standing. The radio in Truman Beaumont's kitchen has been persuaded to play his favourite song. He is singing along, badly. Perry Gorse was born to Edie Gorse and Ewan Callahan. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Seed Loaf Question reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
