The concept of a polystory is interesting and calls for an ensemble cast of characters and lots of planning. If you can pull it off you’re a way better storyteller than I’ll ever be! For most writers this type of story would collapse under the weight of a dozen kitchen sinks with dirty dishes piled everywhere. The fact you reference a couple of very old books tells me it’s a rare author who can pull it off.
If you’re willing to try to get this contraption off the ground without crashing and burning you’re braver and a better writer than most.
God speed and good luck. I’ll be on the runway with a fire extinguisher in case your effort crashes and burns on takeoff. Hey, I want to see you survive such a brave task! And make sure to wear a nomex flight suit so you have some fire protection. If it flies I’ll wave from the ground.

Such a good piece! This approach aligns with something I've wanted to write ages ago, so I will save it and reread again when I can start it.
Thank you!
