Reply to Brian Howell: No, no connections apart from that cover and other

Subject: The Gift/Lolita addendum re: Balthus (fwd)
------------------- One thing I forgot to mention was how much the passage
I quoted from _The Gift_ about the German nymph on p. 305 reminds me of
Balthus. Are there any connections between Balthus and N aside from the old
Penguin cover for _Lolita_?
