Most recent acquisitions were a bunch of the recent eBook editions. I can't remember if I got it in that format (I do have the pBook...). > On Thu, Nov 15, 2012 at 1:15 PM, Antonin Scriabin > wrote: > And marked as such! > > I'll take this opportunity to ask a Wolfe-related question, things have > seemed a bit quiet lately.

Very subtle, with a lot of beautiful ambiguities, e.g. the bandit Wat and Sir Ganelon (the king's man to supervise the forest) seem to be one and the same.

I have read it, some years ago. I found it pretty enjoyable. It is slightly 'easier reading' than most Wolfe, because a lot of the puzzling elements are explained in the text rather than being left for decades of further online debate. A lot of people seem to read it as a right-wing parable, warning against the dangers of redistribution. Not sure about that myself; it seems to me to be more about mistaken perceptions and the disappointing realizations of leaving childhood. best, Mo # ~ # ~ # WolfeWiki -- a wiki about Gene Wolfe http://www.wolfewiki.com/pmwiki/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
