Pardon my ignorance, but what is "Lupine"? I just picked up a copy of There Are Doors at the used paperback store the other day, and it is described as "loop-the-Lupine". I've heard you guys talk about Lupine on the list before. Thanks, -Steve *This is WHORL, for discussion of Gene Wolfe's Book of the Long Sun.
