Sorry to make this so public, but I don’t have any other way to communicate with you.

The Tanguay I know isn’t researching a book, and doesn’t know any that are. So go ahead and charge into an Eva Tanguay biography. The world will be richer for it.

I will check into the Lincoln Center Library when I get the chance, and see what they have. I don’t care if they eat newbies. I got where I am by rushing in where even FOOLS dare to tread.

By the way, if you’re looking for a corset, try science fiction conventions. No joke. The last one we went to we found quite an assortment of viscera-distorting fashions. My wife asked if she should get one, but I voted it down. It might look sexy, but it sure as heck looked uncomfortable, too. Not worth it, IMHO.

By the way, you can e-mail me through the MedusaMystery site if you want a less public communications conduit.

Thanks! The Eva Tanguay book would be maybe two books from now—five or six years in the future.

Lincoln Center tips: they are temporarily located on the uptown side of West 43rd Street, between 10th and 11th Avenues. When you get there, look up “Tanguay” in the files. Fill out a request slip, with the number of whatever you want (e.g., “MWEZ 64,008”) at the top right-hand corner. Give it to the librarian, who will stamp it and send you to the back room. Hand it in.

An hour later, they will tell you “it’s not available,” “it’s missing,” or “we’re afraid the bookshelf will fall down on us.” [I am not kidding, these are all excuses I have been given]

Corsets? You want corsets? Try this site, which is owned by a dear friend of mine, or this one for slightly less aggressive apparel.
