And yet we still love it. Get a hair of the person you wish to cast the love spell on. Anoint a High John Root with Come to Me Oil, then wrap the hair around it. When meeting with your loved one, carry the root in a red flannel bag and you will notice that he/she would fall in love with you. After Tristan Strong and his friends aid the Ridgefolk in defeated the Abiyoyo, he arrives and asks for the Story Box. When Tristan says they need it to save MidPass, he says the island is overrun by iron monsters and no one is left and continue to ask for the Story Box. Tristan does not believe him and goes to leave but High John goes over to him and causes Tristan to experience pain that causes him to pass out. I think this falls short of an accurate depiction of what the police are. While I wanted to write a novel that did not idealize or correct the sort of ire directed at the police — which, as I said, I think is often justified — I wanted also to write about people who, a lot of the time, are doing sensible things that are societally necessary. Having to clean up the mess that modern capitalism leaves is often a thankless task, but there are people in there motivated by good and decent reasons; they’re not a species apart from other civil servants. They say High John was a big man who had come across the ocean from Africa. He hated being a slave and was wily clever at getting out of work. If he went to the field with a shovel, the shovel broke. If he went to the toolshed for a tool, the shed burned down.

I’m an import to this area, but I’ve been here since 2008. And prior to that, I lived in London for 30 or 31 years. So I suppose you could say that it took me over a decade to write about my immediate environment. And also it took me seven novels before I was ready to write in first person or use the “I” for a novel. Yeah. So neither of these things — which I think are pretty common for novelists — were the positions I started with. The Straight Dope: What is the "John the Conqueroo" made famous by blues singers?".

There will always be police, there will always be rancor and conflict. Even in some as-yet-unimagined anarchist paradise, they would still be there. I don’t believe in human perfectibility on earth, so I don’t think that the Marxist analysis is a complete one. And I also think that the police are probably one of the few state-run, centralized bureaucratic organizations where the left pours opprobrium and hatred, and gives vent to feelings that they never would to ambulance drivers or even soldiers, far less nurses or teachers. I’m not saying that the police don’t at times deserve this, but I think that they have become a kind of unthinking demonized bogeyman for the left.

The list ends by the mid-nineties, not because treasured listening experiences ceased at that time, rather by then the music had already done its work. I had begun my first novel, and knew what I wanted to be, my future listening less a question of showing me the way as simply one of enjoying myself.

These people don’t just disappear. They’re sitting in the pub brooding. There’s a guy in a pub in Salisbury that was in a band that supported Nirvana and in 1992, that was the best thing he’d ever done in his life. In 2022, thirty years later, it’s still the best thing he’s done in his life, but the pieces have changed. The context’s different. It’s a story about different approaches. Policing is containment. How do you keep a lead on this hell, this slow car crash where the tectonic plates met in 2016 with Brexit and Trump. Then you’ve got the actual High John the Conqueror, this drug that allows you to physically dematerialize and reject the world and the pain in that way.

I’m still with the Blakean project here, which is that knowledge this way lies.
