During Scottie's ill-advised bathroom break at the Davy Byrne's
Bananafish Summit last December, I tried (half-heartedly, and from
underneath a considerable mass of guilt at that) asking his wife Hazel
about those books.  I don't recall her response, exactly, but I do
remember that my innocent pretenses quickly crumbled, revealing the
glaring/hideous/etc enormity of my intentions.  I tried bribery;
Helena tried forceful extraction.  No luck.
