The Man, page 7: "His voice changed to a parody of a half-educated, middle-class woman's, mellow with self-esteem, firm with ignorance."
page 62 -- "It'll probably turn out to be Grierson having a randy night out and too shy to tell us about it."

To how many levels does this go?
Does one need a fictional agent agent to represent a book, of this genre, to the publisher? What if the (intelligence/security) agent character had a cover identity as a literary agent? Would the representation then need to be by a fictional agent agent agent, or fictional agent fictional agent agent? Howard C. Berkowitz 23:29, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
- Well, I suppose that you could ask, not me, or John Craig, but John Brock, who is, of course, in his *other* life, a mild-mannered advertising agent.... Hayford Peirce 23:34, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
