The Titchborn trial and its impact on Zaidi

In this chapter, they discuss the Titchborn trial and its impact on Zaidi, who initially didn't want to write a historical novel. They delve into the reversal in logic and the support for a poor man claiming to be a rich man, drawing parallels to the O.J. case and the support for an obvious murderer. They also explore how cases of systematic injustice can lead to the desire for one's own to win, and the connection between Trump, Titchborn, and OJ as overdetermined symbols with multiple meanings.
