Just when I am skeptical about ESP something occurs. During this recent attack of the flu I picked up Norman Sherry's first 2 volumes on Greene. This morning Paul Theroux has a strange review of his work in the Times on the occasion of the third volume's debut. Of course I have not read it yet but hope the book is not so sex-oriented as the review. The reproductive urge incidental to achievement in man, but for some reason the press feels obliged to focus on it.
