The Literary Dick (as in Private Detective)welcomes questions about literary mysteries and scandals, which should be sent to: woodyswoody@hotmail.com or jonathanames2@aol.com . The Literary Dick is usually manned by the young scholar, Michael Wood, not to be confused with the middle-aged Princeton scholar of the same name, but young Michael Wood is currently in England studying Milton or something, and also has a bad case of wrist-pain, which is quite possibly carpal tunnel syndrome and which keeps him from caressing the computer keyboard. So I, Jonathan Ames, young Michael's publisher, will take over The Literary Dick for the time being, especially after our recent publicity in the New York Times Book Review: http://www.nytimes.com/2004/10/03/books/review/03ORRL.html? pagewanted=4&oref=login All I can say is that I will do my best to substitute for Michael, though he is a tough act to follow. Scroll down to the bottom of this page and peruse the archives for his fascinating investigations into the sex lives of writers, as well as other tawdry matters. To see his most classic work, his groundbreaking study of Henry James's testicles, go to: http://jonathanames.com/james/james.html Well, I thank you very much for visiting The Literary Dick and I will try to solve your mysteries as best I can and will hold down the fort until young Michael's wrists are healed -- Jonathan Ames.
