Carolyn dear: That's the way he
wanted it. Warm greetings, D.
Dear
Dmitri,
I know. But do the dead, no matter how dear, have a right to
privacy? And if so, to how much?
Your father himself, for example, did
not respect the privacy of Proust - - the ugly story he refers to in Ada
is rather "beyond the Pale" isn't it? Is your father entitled to more privacy
than he would extend to Proust? Wieso?
