 {- Note [The CEK interpreter]:
 
+The Klister interpreter is a straightforward implementation of a CEK
+interpreter. The interpreter keeps three kinds of state:
+
+-- C: Control      ::= The thing that is being evaluated
+-- E: Environment  ::= The interpreter environment
+-- K: Kontinuation ::= The syntactic context of the thing that is being interpreted
+
+Why a CEK? A CEK interpreter allows us to have precise control over the
+evaluation of a klister program. For example, because the interpreter keeps a
+reference to the kontinuation we can provide stack traces. This handle also
+makes a more advanced debugger possible. Upon an evaluation error we could save
+the kontinuation stack, over write a variable in the environment a la common
+lisp or even rewind the evaluation
+
+The bird's eye view:
