An Exchange and Discussion about the stories in EINSTEIN'S BEACH HOUSE by Jacob M. Appel

AT LAST...

GODOT or least some version of that elusive figure did arrive. At long last, let the dialogue begin. Please drop the "Dear Wyzard" salutation. We are not writing letters.

Just begin your conversation. I'm still waiting for your acknowledging any of the content that was written entirely for your benefit and no one else. All of that commentary was intended to launch several conversations, but alas, we are still bogged down in HUE AND CRY--- Oh, the wonder of it all!

Hue has a double meaning as it can refer to color, or it can refer to the quality of one's values. Cry might be someone shouting, or it might be someone weeping. This hadn't occurred to me until now, although I've read this story before, and now I can see that Appel's ambiguity is deliberate.

PLEASE: TITLES IN CAPS! Let's have a sense of style.
