(urth) Urth Digest, Vol 56, Issue 37

[Robin Dunn]

Quick question for you guys:

Which short story of Wolfe's do you think would be the easiest to
film, where some of the moral ambiguity and complexity of Wolfe could
show through on screen?

I'm not a connoisseur of his short work, and it's often struck me as
dryer, but would love to hear your thoughts.

Cheers,
Robin
