Wolfe interview on SF SITE

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.

=46rom the interview - which I enjoyed very much, though I laughed perhaps
more than I learned...

NG: You're very good at parody...Many of the stories in "Strange Travelers"
appear to be homages on some level, some obvious...but others more
fugitively so (...M R James in "One-Two-Three For Me")...

GW: I'm amazed that you saw M. R. James in "One-Two-Three For Me." You're
very perceptive.

[NG: Actually, this was pointed out by somebody else, whose name presently
escapes me...]

Irritatingly, young Price bounces up and down at the back of the classroom,
waving his hand importunately in the air, an expression of intense pain on
his face while he implores, "Me, Doctor Gevers! Me! Ooof! Ooof! It was me!
It was me!" (See Subject: (urth) A Haunting Similarity?
