No. How about this instead:

"The front cover was to be a nude, overblown—well past it—woman’s front, while the rear was, of course, a photo of her rear. A bookmark was to be inserted.

Gass and Wolfe don't replace any of the authors from the original meme trilogy, as they are largely dissimilar to them. In truth, they stand on their own.

Yes, think of it as a nova trilogy alongside a high lit trilogy.

>>7745500
Bolaño is good tho...
