In case you've been thinking about reading _SPEAK, MEMORY_, I can pass
along some lurid inducements. I have before me the Pyramind paperback edition of 1973
at $1.25.
The front cover describes the volume as:
"Passionate and Uninhibited by the author of LOLITA and ADA. (NYT).

If that's not enough to arouse your interest, the back cover----:
THE INITIATIONS OF LOVE
THE TURMOIL OF REVOLUTION
THE DANGERS AND INTRIGUES OF EXILE.

Wow!
