Thanks so much, Aaron! I appreciate it. I am getting to the portion of his short fiction in the mid 70s where Wolfe produced most of his superb but super dense novellas - Forleson, Silhouette, Death of Doctor Island, Seven American Nights, Eyeflash Miracles, Tracking Song, etc. and it may take me a bit to work through those rigorously, (they are denser than most other novels, but there is a lot of existing explication I need to sort through) but once I get to the 80s his concentration on the longer novels and series will get the short fiction analysis moving more quickly again. Thanks for the kind words.

I would love to see the collective wisdom of the list in book form someday. There is much here of interest to the Wolfe enthusiast. I have many times gotten lost in the archives and spent hours reading. Almost as fun as reading Wolfe himself. And I absolutely love your analysis of Wolfe's short fiction, Marc. A Herculean effort on your part, but well worth it to those who get to read it.

>> I just wanted to say hello. I've been reading the listserve for a few years now, taking the time to go through everything (although with a strange feeling of time travel). I've been reading Wolfe for about 20 years now, since my early teens, and I have been absolutely stymied by how deep and nuanced you've all been in your theorizing and hypothesizing. I hope to be able to hop into some of these discussion, but for now, thanks for the enlightenment.

>Welcome Jason thanks. As you can see the list and the dominant mood and the constituents have changed a lot over the years. The early list was especially interesting in the specialization of many posters - vicars, editors, etc. Some day I hope a lot of that early work will be utilized in some more unified form. Wolfe as a childhood experience is wonderful.
