How wonderful was that!! My most favorite author in the world, Ann Patchett and Amor Towles (a close second favorite) discuss Amor’s methods of writing and details about Table for Two. I was thrilled to find out that The Bootlegger was partially autobiographical. Thank you Ann and Amor.

I read Gentleman and am through five of the short stories in Table for Two. I've read two of Ann Patchett's books. I'm a "fan!" My comment is about the The Touchett story. The treatment of the form of the signatures, loops, curves, flourishes, etc. is done well. But wouldn't an original signature in an old book also age? Fresh ink on ancient paper? Fading? What about the type of pen, especially the nib used when the book was signed? And the color of the ink and its chemical makeup? Wouldn't all this create a different character to the signature? Wouldn't it be discernable to an expert?
