Hi, C.S., Yes, the vitriol and depth of this controversy surprised me, too — as well as the fact that the publishers actually responded. Other interesting book “back-stories" are included in the pieces titled Conflict in Book World — (About legal accusations that Jojo Moyes plagiarized her newest book,”Keeper of the Stars,”) and “The Rest of the Story;and Delia Owens' “Where the Crawdads Sing" outlining the allegations against her family with the suggestion that they got away with murder. Thanks for the response. I really appreciate the time and effort it takes for someone to actually write me a note. My best to you.
