This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Greetings:

Chapter VI of "Shadow" is my favorite chapter so far
in my re-read. You get to see a bit beyond Severian's
world. I also am a big fan of libraries, and this
chapter also had echoes for me of other works such as
Mervyn Peake's "Gormenghast".
