"Yeah, especially if you know the story ABOUT the book
(and it's author) 
as
opposed to just the story that's IN the book.

-G."

This is very true. John Kennedy Toole was an
interesting character(Almost as much so as

read. There is a really sad story behind the
publication of his book.

Best,

Pete
