Dear STaN,

It has been some years, but I think Professor Geduld listed "Pale
Fire" among a series of works he took as being either continuations or
re-writes of Jekyll and Hyde. His book is scarce and I don't know when
I can get over to UCLA to see the copy there for myself. I could not
find a copy on the 'net for sale, not even for ready money. Perhaps
someone on the List has access to The Definitive Jekyll and Hyde?

Carolyn

p.s. I will answer specific question on the list - - just giving up
playing defense in public.
