Ever since I started watching _Mad Men_, it's tickled me to think that
the time and place the show is set in (New York City, 1960 to 1966 so
far) is the same as that of the bulk of _The Motion of Light in
Water_. So when characters drop by the East Village, I think "hey,
that's Chip's neighborhood!" There's also the contrast between
Delany's depiction of his life vs. that of the closeted gay
character on the show.

And then, in a recent episode, we learn that a character has been
writing SF stories in his spare time and getting them published in the
SF magazines of the day...
