	Holdfast - EvoWiki (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		A holdfast is a root-like structure that anchors aquatic sessile organisms, such as seaweed, other sessile algae, stalked crinoids, colonial cnidarians, and sponges.
		Holdfasts vary in shape and form depending on both the species and the substrate type.
		The holdfasts of organisms that live on smooth surfaces (such as the surface of a boulder) have the ends literally glued to the surface, in some cases, the holdfast simply being the actual base of the organism's stalk glued to the surface.

		I felt like your Holdfast trilogy was a much more aggressive statement — which I mean in a good way, although it was sometimes emotionally painful to read.
		('Holdfast’ has a feel that’s much more De Sade than Kosinski, for me at least.) I didn’t experience guilt or fear when reading it, though — I hadn’t oppressed them, and they weren’t coming to get me, so I didn’t relate to that.
		Sam — Comparison to Kosinski is high praise indeed (in its way — I was astounded by "The Painted Bird" but I doubt I'll ever read it again and I rarely recommend it to readers).
