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.

>>Wolfe, Gene. Shadows of the New Sun: Essays (Liverpool University Press,

>>Wright, Peter. Attending Dedalus: Essays on Gene Wolfe (Liverpool
>>University Press, nf, hc)

Peter Wright told us about his book "Attending Dedalus" at the Wolfe
Symposium at Birmingham University last year. This is, to the best of my
recollection, a book of his own essays about Wolfe, and includes material
taken from his doctoral thesis and published essays. It's certainly one that
I want to get hold of.

Don't remember if he mentioned the first title here, though I've got a
feeling he might have done. Anyone remember? Jonathan? Joshua? Spectacled
Bear? Again, looks very interesting.
