In the book "Alan's War" (Emmanuel Guibert's wonderful illumination of
the memories of Alan Cope), it is firmly implied that Gerhard Muench
died in 1988, in Mexico.
Cope was a longtime friend and correspondent of Muench, and his wife,
the poet Vera Muench, who died in 1987. Great web site.
Thanks, Tom Price
