Verse Disguised As Prose
See Leaves Overhead.

Then read this sentence:

"In the night outside the little room in Rogatien Remillard's third-floor flat, the wolf wind was wailing in the doorways, the snow drifted deep along the road, the ice gnomes were marching from their Norways, and the Great White Cold walked abroad."
-Julian May, Magnificat (London, 1996), Epilogue, p. 559.

Some textual rearrangement gives us:

"The wolf wind was wailing in the doorways,
"The snow drifted deep along the road,
"The ice gnomes were marching from their Norways,
"And the Great White Cold walked abroad."

The Dog And The Wolf
"It was twilight - entre chien et loup, as we used to say."
-Julian May, Intervention (London, 1988), 3, p. 29.

Is the dog the day and the wolf the night?

May's Intervention and Galactic Milieu Trilogy cover the period from 1945 to 2113 so they are a future history although Rogi, born in 1945, is still alive in 2113. In this respect, he resembles Robert Heinlein's Lazarus Long and Poul Anderson's Hanno.
