Hi
 
Oh, yes, there is a novel by that name written by Jules and/or Michel. I just happen to be reading the William Butcher translation of this novel (the original Jules manuscript) and there is no monkey in it.
 
It's been a while since I've read the Jules/Michel version, but I don't recall a monkey in that one either. > From: valerysmol~at~mail.ru> To: jvf~at~Gilead.org.il> Subject: Re: Lighthouse at the End of the World> Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2008 19:15:58 +0300> > > Correctly, Mark!
