I'm not really sure. Wherever I read it just said that Julian didn't learn of it until "12 years later" because John and Cynthia separated shortly after John had written it.

Oh... well I guess there's a 11 out of 12 chance that he did know about it before John's death... pretty much... And he and John were getting closer in the months previous... So maybe John told him? I'm going to think that's what happened because it will make me feel better

I'm with you, I'll tell myself he knew BEFORE John's death, because otherwise, I'll just cry.

Statistics don't lie, my friend, 11/12 Okay, uhm, that's not a statistic. That's a fraction. Bloody hell. Fractions don't bloody lie either. Shut up.

Reviving an old topic... I figured it out that Julian must have known that Good Night was written for him before John died, because John said so in the Playboy Interviews. So even if he didn't -tell- Jules, he would've read it in the Playboy Interviews before he died. But if he told it so casually to David Sheff, I figure Jules must've already known before that.

Actually, the Playboy Interviews were actually released in 1981... after John's death... But, yeah, I would suppose he already knew, if John said it in the interview. Or, then again, maybe not... *sigh* I hope so.

...Are you sure? I was under the impression that they were released before he died, but only like... a couple days before.
I think if Julian didn't know, John would have said, "Julian doesn't know this yet but..." -shrug- At least now I have reason to believe he did know

The reason I was confused is in the epilouge of the book that is was released on December 6th, 1980, I believe it was
