[Vwoolf] "Too Naked For the Nazis"

[Stuart N. Clarke]

My partner has the 2015 winner.  The irony is that one of the Bettys (there were a number) became a reporter, and at the Nuremberg Trials ‘learnt from an American guard about Goering’s suicide a few minutes before the execution and didn’t believe it.  She had been handed a sensational scoop ... and lost the chance of a lifetime.  Journalists never forgave her.  She took to drink out of despair’, allegedly (p. 194).

In her Penguin (1992) edition intro to Mrs Dalloway, Elaine Showalter cites a description of Clarissa by novelist Paul Bailey as “a snobbish, vain, repressed lesbian who has dabbled in culture, but for the greater part of the novel she is only a shadow…” (etc.). Showalter’s citation is to an article by Bailey titled ‘Into the Waves’ supposedly in the TLS of 13 May 1973. As I have been unable to track this down in the TLS, the London Times, or any other database, I am offering a nice book (of my choosing) to anyone who can locate the actual source of this quotation! If it actually exists, that is…
