wrote to Alan furst asking him why Cafe heininger was in every book of his:" Does it still exist in Bastille? Did you have
a wager with the owner one drunken night there exclaiming "And, you
don't think I can write? That I'm not a writer! I'll write you in every
book I write, salope!" or maybe they were kind to you in some
unfathomable way in which you have repaid with each telling of the
bullet hole in the mirror?"he rep0lied:
Thanks for writing, don't know (computer change) if I answered but, in case
I didn't, the Heininger (Bofinger) is still there, but I went recently and
it's a tourist
trap. Alas.I liked your fantasy about the owner, wish life were like that.
All best,
Alan Furst
