Dear Steve, Priscilla, Carolyn
Omnipresent ravenous correspondences bt.Terra and Antiterra, Cinderella metamorphoses gradually leading young girls to Gray Star, no oasis in remembering - just dismembering or disremembering. Quite. We only have to look around us to agree and let our fictive aquarine bowl be smashed by the too real nutcracker of facts.  Touché!

I think VN builds these connectors between novels to indicate the Cinderella metamorphoses undergone by the recurring characters--Pnin is now a martinet rather than subject to others' machinations, the dog has gone from stray to well-fed companion and master of the floor.
