A rather feisty Pym fan makes an appearance in Chapter 23 of one of Donald Westlake's later Dortmunder novels, Watch Your Back! -- jalp 2602:306:8B98:2270:52F:8D24:B692:5629 (talk) 20:03, 6 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Early literary career

'All of Pym's books up to this point had featured either the Anglican church community or anthropologists; No Fond Return of Love combines the two.' I suspect this is a description of An Unsuitable Attachment rather than No Fond Return of Love; are there any anthropologists in the latter? Snugglepuss (talk) 11:35, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
