Invisible Library

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.

Hi, everyone!  I've been on the Whorl List for a while, but I subscribed
to this one to see what I've been missing and to mention the Invisible
Library site <http://www.invisiblelibrary.com/ILCatalogf.htm>, a catalog
of fictitious books.  I think a lot of readers of this list will enjoy
browsing the catalog.  But although there's a lot of sf, there's nothing
between Wodehouse and Woolf!  So what books exist only in Wolfe's fiction?

I'll start, in the Library's format:

Title: The Book of the New Sun
Pseudo-Author: unknown
Pseudo-Title: The Wonders of Urth and Sky
Comments: A compilation of ancient stories

Title: The Book of the Long Sun, The Book of the Short Sun
Pseudo-Author: unknown (or is somebody mentioned?)
Pseudo-Title: The Chrasmological Writings
Comments: The scriptures of a religion

There must be more than this.  The librarian,Brian Quinette, asks for
suggestions, so when this thread winds up I'll e-mail him at
<bartleby at invisiblelibrary.com>.
