ugh! I've got to get my eyes checked--again! Thanks, Paul. I'll do a re-do--and I agree about As I Lay Dying. I actually like "The Unvanquished" a lot & "Sound & the Fury." Darrel & I saw a 1st edition of S& F WITH the dust jacket in the archives. Very rare to see a dust jacket of that novel in good condition. Cheers, Christine
