From: m.driussi@genie.com Subject: (urth) newbie seeks info? Date: Wed, 19 Aug 98 14:08:00 GMT Hello Jonathan Laidlow. Re: book(s) listed in Joan Gordon's GENE WOLFE; pertaining to THE BOOK OF THE NEW SUN; specifically (?) Gene Wolfe writing about how he wrote TBOTNS (?). The book in question would be THE CASTLE OF THE OTTER: A BOOK ABOUT THE BOOK OF THE NEW SUN (1982). It has been reprinted by Tor in an omnibus edition with GENE WOLFE'S BOOK OF DAYS (1981) as CASTLE OF DAYS (1992). The only other book about TBOTNS (that I'm aware of) is LEXICON URTHUS (1994), but it is not listed in Joan Gordon's GENE WOLFE (1986), nor does it have articles by Wolfe about the writing of TBOTNS. Otherwise, the book(s) listed in Joan Gordon's GW in the chapter about TBOTNS: only THE BIBLE (the other citations are reviews of TBOTNS, an interview with Gene Wolfe, and an article for writers by Gene Wolfe). I hope this helps. =mantis= *More Wolfe info & archive of this list at http://www.urth.net/urth/
