An Imaginary Conversation with Muhammad Ali
by Eric v.d. Luft
Disclaimer 1 (November 2015):
I have never met Muhammad Ali and he probably does not
know who I am. The contents of this book are, as the title
says, purely imaginary - which is not to say fictitious,
for Ali and I are real people, and there is no "story" here,
only social, political, literary, and cultural criticism and
commentary, presented as if it were a conversation between
us two. The annotations are all editorial additions.
Disclaimer 2 (August 2016):
Muhammad Ali died in June 2016 when this book was in the
final stages of preparation. I would have liked to send him a
copy. Even though I never met him, I miss him, and I hope
his life was really as wonderful as I think it was. In his honor,
nothing in our imaginary conversation has been changed
from before he died. Let us not mourn his death, but celebrate
his life, as if he would live forever, at least in the spirit
of all that is truly decent and human.
