Has anyone here read this book? I'm not going to discuss the plot
here, as I don't want this thread to be immediately spoilery, but I
think there's a lot in the book to appeal to Wolfe fans. It's very
short, but also quite satisfying. The author, Adolfo Bioy Casares, was
a great friend and collaborator of Borges, who wrote an introduction
to the book.

Yes. I think I was responsible for having it placed on _Lost_.

In all seriousness, however, it's a fine book, worth talking about it
reference to Wolfe's interest in virtualization in the nin stories and
perhaps also the islands.
