>>>> In my portmanteau review of Cunningham’s THE HOURS (+Mitz+Mr. Dalloway+the holograph and typescript versions of JR and Mrs. D) a criticism was that though the fictional treatments included bibliographies—none of the novelists consulted primaries—including the Wussow and the Ted Bishop holograph and typescript respectively.
>>>> 
>>>> A short time after the review was published in WSA, I met Cunningham at a Woolf conference (at UM/Baltimore, if memory serve) and he accused me of “trashing” the books under review......which was not the point at all.
