When I saw that Robert Borski had written a post about "Cherry Jubilee" I read the story for the first time so I would be able to understand his discussion. I'm glad I did, as he analyzed the religious allusions in the work I wasn't aware of. However, at the end of the story, the Captain is not the one blamed by the authorities. His father-in-law, a party official, has enough influence that Oussenko's story is not accepted by the law, and Oussenko is locked up on the ship, where she will be returned to Earth for sentencing. Just a minor point. Also, even though this is a crime/mystery story of Wolfe's, I was actually able to figure out the ending before it happened, in contrast to usually not understanding the ending even after I'm done! prion _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
