Great Gene Wolfe Story ...

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.

No problem.  The copyright date says 2011, so it looks very recent.  I
actually just saw a link somewhere for a "new" Wolfe story, so I clicked
the link, dove into the story because I did not recognize the title, and
then found out about the project / painting afterward when I scrolled up
and read the intro.  Then it hit me just how intense the end is; glad I
read the story first and got the visual second!  A great story and a great
idea for inspiration.
