Mortality and LOA

I just received the latest from Marilynne Robinson, Jack.

I am certain the Gilead series will be part of a future LOA, but at 48 am now worried I won't see it!

I assume (perhaps without sufficient cause) that I shall live to see 100, and have reasonable use of my faculties until then. When I have such thoughts as in >1 kcshankd:, I remind myself I've roughly the same amount of time left as time spent. From that perspective, LOA didn't even exist for most of the time gone!

That said, I hope we all get to see you enjoy your copy of the LOA edition of Gilead.

Thank you for that! But I suppose if I am holding out on my deathbed, it should be for the forthcoming 3 volume LOA Cormac McCarthy set...
