Considering the really quite frightening number of Poe forgeries (many still undetected) out there, this seems like quite a financial gamble. I have to admit, it would amuse the hell out of me if this turned out to be another example of Charles Hamilton's Law.
But then, I'm evil.
I'll update this post if and when the manuscript is fully vetted.
P.S. Anyone else remember this little debacle, described here by the Poe Society of Baltimore?
On December 7th at The Fan Museum in Greenwich, London they have the premiere showcase of "Uncommon Spring" Adrian Drew's new play about Poe. For tickets phone 0208 305 1441 www.thefanmuseum.org.uk
