Talk:The Breathing Method

Untitled
WARNING MASSIVE SPOILER

In expanding the synopsis I dropped the part about the patient, Sandra, being decapitated before giving birth, since that's, like, the "final twist" which is the whole point of reading the story, a la a Twilight Zone episode. Any thoughts? --209.149.235.254 20:18, 22 Apr 2004 (UTC)
 * A blast from the past - yours truly made this comment when I was an anonymous noob. Obviously under WP policy as it's developed over the years it's proper to discuss the story in full. Thanks to all for not biting. Ellsworth (talk) 03:23, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

Synopsis question
I think the synopsis needs some work - the second paragraph is confusing, and the barkeep from the Bronx is not explained at all. -Elizabennet | talk 22:06, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * This appears to have been fixed, and the reference to the barkeep is dropped. -- The Bronx? In the version I have (UK paperback - picked it up on holiday when I was a teen) he's from Brooklyn. Ellsworth (talk) 03:10, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The version I searched on Amazon shows Stevens (the barkeep) is from Brooklyn in the US paperback. As usual with UK/US editions there are minor differences in spelling, colloquial expressions, etc. The one I always remember with amusement is that in the US version David's preferred cocktail is a scotch and soda, whereas in my UK paperback it's a Bombay martini.
