Wolfe stories

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.

I've been mostly lurking here for ages, impressed by the level of 
erudition and analysis - I'm not a particularly analytical reader at the 
best of times, and I sometimes wonder whether I'm the sort of person who 
should be reading Wolfe in the first place. Most of the discussion has 
been centered on the novels though, and I tend to read his short stories 
more.

Is there any archive of discussion on his shorter works - or do people 
mind if I just ask "what the hell was that all about" about a particular 
story?
