It's in the hands of the gods now. That said, I know my 30 year-old copy of West with the Night is around here somewhere and I've already checked library availability on the Trzebinski bio, to refresh my memory about the issues. I've come up with nothing on the Donada Peters front, but I'm considering giving Julie Harris a try if Markham wins. She's a wonderful actress and I'd hope she can transcend the dread Yank accent.

As for Horizon, for me it's one of those rare cases where the movie is better than the book (the Ronald Colman version, of course).
