Amanda Ros

Roy, Okay, we have a genuine timeline problem, since O RARE AMANDA was first published in 1954. How neat if our best anchor points (like Ludwig's biography of Napoleon) all come from publishing dates! Back to Amanda:

These titles all check out. IRENE was her first book (a savage critique of it backfired and launched her, in a way), DONALD was aimed at literary critics, FUMES was her final published work. I mentioned before HELEN HUDDLESON--it turns out she never finished the manuscript. There is also ST. SCANDALBAGS, which slams critics. Amanda Ros was famous for hating critics and lawyers; thus it makes perfect sense, seeing as how she wrote DONALD, that she would also pen a book blasting lawyers. Hence the rationale for THE LUSTY LAWYER. Looking over the titles, with an eye toward PEACE (please don't forget that the =only= occurance of the word "peace" in PEACE is in the Ros forgery!), I will admit that I'm a little uneasy about "Delina," since A.D. Weer's mom's name is Adelina, aka "Della." =mantis= Sirius Fiction Has Moved To http://www.siriusfiction.com/
