Prince & Wolf in the factory

The Prince and the Wolf is now in the factory, meaning that Peter Erdélyi and I have done our final correction of proofs, and from here on out the book is out of our hands. (NOTE: his last name is Hungarian and is pronounced something close to “air day.”)

The project has been “cursed” by strange delays, such as the manuscript getting misplaced in the system a couple of times, but it now ought to be on track.

Peter really deserves the credit for this one. There would never have been an event at the LSE in the first place if not for he and his friends arranging it. Then, the LSE taped the discussion and paid for transcribers. Then they decided to give me the rights to the transcription even though they paid for it. Then Peter jumped in and fixed a rather lackadaisical job by the transcribers. (And then he wrote a very nice Introduction as well.)

The result is a very interesting and only lightly edited transcript of the LSE discussion of February 5, 2008.
