Is that why he is named Jack Wild as opposed to Wildly? Actually Garden of Sand and its two sequels seem to be pretty autobigraphical. It's a shame Thompson died so young. If he could have kept the energy from his first book while perfecting his technique he might have produced something even better. Mark
