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.

Are we talking about a hypothetical backstory to the Red Sun Whorl (a
Clawmarillion), or a hypothetical collection of Gene Wolfe's ideas,
thoughts, unused notions, etc. (a History of Briah) ?

Regarding hypothetical books by Wolfe, I crave a fourth and concluding Latro
book above all else.  Gene has two other projects scheduled, but I'm hopeful
that he'll do a fourth Latro after that.  I think we're done with the Sun,
so to speak.
