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.

Shriek is a great book, one of my all time favorites.

URTHers --
?
I glanced at a copy of Jeff VanderMeer's recent novel, Shriek -- An 
Afterword, and discovered that it has a blurb by Gene Wolfe: 
?
"Here is a desert island book, a tale you can lose yourself in for days, a 
novel of character in which the setting -- the magnificently gritty city-state 
named Ambergris -- proves as the light fails to be the finest character of 
all."

I wish someone were keeping track of all the books Wolfe has 
blurbed....
