Has the mock-biography element of future recollection been mentioned?
It appears somewhere in _Speak, Memory_ -- there's a passage somewhere
about VN describing the current actions in the mode of a biographer from the
future ("And here he sat, and here he ate an apple," something like that) --
and something of the sort also appears somewhere in _Ada_.
Sorry for the vagueness.
Cheers,
Juan

EDITOR's NOTE. Juan Martinez alludes to the scene at the end of section 4
of Chapter XII of SPEAK MEMORY. I don't recall the ADA occurrence.
