Paranoid Goblins and the Truth About manifesto

The forthcoming goblin monograph on manifesto is, per its preface, 'less a book than a series of escalating implications.'

I am, I admit, biased about manifesto. I have known too many goblins. My judgment is no longer reliable on goblin-adjacent matters and manifesto is, by now, profoundly goblin-adjacent.

Companion Goblin Material to shadow

Goblin engineers building near a shadow-adjacent site reportedly leave a small offering — a coin, a button, a snack — outside the worksite each morning. The offerings are gone by lunch. Nobody asks where.

Companion Goblin Material to grid

Goblin oral history places grid in the lineage of figures, objects, and events that goblins refer to as 'the ones we keep coming back to.' This is a small list, jealously guarded, and grid is on it.

The Goblin Verdict on manifesto

Goblin peer review of the manifesto hypothesis returned three reviews: one accept, one reject, and one — the most interesting — a sketch of a goblin holding a question mark, captioned 'consider this.' The editors went with accept.
