Hi all, Long-time lurker here, de-lurking ... :-) SciFi Newswire (scifi.com/newswire) talks about the upcoming issue of F&SF devoted to Wolfe. In doing so, it mentions Pirate Freedom: "Wolfe said that the ideal of freedom has been running through his work lately, and "Memorare" is just one manifestation of it. "March's hopper [spacecraft] is a 21st-century version of Chris' pirate ship in Pirate Freedom [to be published in September]," he said. "Chris is the son of a mafioso in Cuba. He slips backward in time to the great age of [western] piracy, lives for about two years as a sailor, a buccaneer and a pirate, then slides forward in time to the time of his own birth." More info on the F&SF issue (sounds like a must for GW fans) at: http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/index.php?category=5&id=40135 Best regards, Mark
