Thanks for giving me an excuse to go back and reread Smith’s stories. It’s been fun. Hope you’ve found more. Oh yeah, Drunkboat‘s Rambo = Rimbaud! D’oh!

My French isn’t good enough for the original, but I’ll see if I can find a translation. Drunkboat is stunning. Scanners Live In Vain also rises to the top.

Hope you’ve tracked these down—I just re-read Dead Lady of Clown Town and it’s even better than I remembered. Next, track down his novel, Norstrilia. And if you can, find some biographical information on him. Fascinating man.

Just re-read Alpha Ralpha Boulevard. If you can track it down, The Ballad of Lost C’Mell is what I’d recommend for the next, then Dead Lady of Clown Town. Enjoy!

His stories build an amazing universe. Norstrilia is brilliant. Mother Hitton’s Littul Kittens, the Ballad of Lost C’Mel, any of the stories.
