The Land Across moratorium?

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.

Well, NOW you've got me interested. That's one of my all-time favorites.

_Last Letters from Hav_ is probably an early reference point for this

>City & the City's a very good conversation partner to bring in, 
yes!? I've only read the excerpt online of Wolfe's new book but having read 
Mieville's I can already tell they work in shadowing each other.? I 
recently read Wolfe's There Are Doors for the first time and it also is very 
Kafka-esque (referencing Kafka's works explicitly) and the excerpt of TLA 
reminded me of that earlier work as well.? -DOJP
