Listen to "What Sophie Knew" by James B. Pollack. 128 BPM, G minor, Ableton Live 9.0.5b3, 5 Ableton sample references. "What Sophie Knew" sits inside James B. Pollack's Crowleyverse naming system and connects most clearly to Little, Big. It points toward Smoky Barnable, Daily Alice Drinkwater, Auberon, Sophie, Edgewood, the Drinkwater/Barnable family, and the great Tale. The source connection is literary and thematic rather than an official adaptation: John Crowley was Pollack's writing advisor at Yale, and the title system treats the catalog as a set of linked rooms inside that influence.
