“Astute readers will have noted that I also left riddle He) unsolved. When. the responses started coming in, I discovered that this riddle had proved the hardest: everybody wanted to know who “coffm; baby boy” was. The problem was that I had, by this point, mislaid my first draft of “Pyotr’s Story”-and I had forgotten the solution. To my horror, I found that I could not figure it out myself!
After months of shame, I sat bolt upright in bed one morning and realized I had the solution again-so I incorporated it into the story you are about to read, “Involuntary Man’s Laughter.”
One last word about “Pyotr’s Story,” though.
