I just e-mailed Tom Wolfe's publishers, Farrar, Strauss, and Giroux about Wolfe's possible participation in the discussion thread about his book next month. They do have a program where you can request author's appearances. However, this would be even easier since Wolfe only needs to appear in Cyberspace.
I don't promise anything since I only sent in a request. But wouldn't it be INCREDIBLE if Tom Wolfe HIMSELF could participate in the discussion when we discuss his book next month?
Hey! Ain't this what the Internet is all about?!!!
