Judyth Baker on the Queen of Spades

[Martin Shackelford]

the gray book:
At U LA, if you didn't know the name of a book, you couldn't get it brought
down...not knowing what was up there, i could not ask for it...the library
under reconstruction and elevators not working, i was confined to the first
floor for a year....
[Louis] Girdler asked the librarian specifically for a book with "The Queen
of Spades" in it and she described it....but he's such a silly goose, as he
didn't require her to find a book written in russian...my bad back made it
impossible to climb the many stairs to the fourth or fifth
floor...impossible... but what's important is that the ONLY Russian Pushkin
they had up there with the requisite short story the Queen of Spades--had a
RED cover. I described, as you know, a gray cover. Furthermore, the red
cover was a hardback, not floppy.

Who cares? I know you've staked your reputation, Shackelford, on Judyth's
credibility and if she's a fraud, well you know what that makes you. But
let's not keep recycycling the same ol, same ol'. The story is dead
because Team Judyth (when there still was a Team Judyth -- before all the
back stabbing and name calling begin) could never post any physical
evidence that she knew Oswald or worked in a secret lab. Give us a break.
At leasst Judyth waas considerate enought to flee the country.

I hope she keeps this up! I do wonder why Martin doesn't read them
first and send them back for rewrite,pointing out all the places she
conflicts even with her own self, though!

The Grey Cover book is only about 24 pages (I have copy buried in
files)...... too expense to make it into hardback. It's a "short
story"....and it would be in the music/opera/reference section....it's not
a major novel....the story covers the operata translation from Russian.

"From Russian" .. does that mean yours is in English ... and are both
Pushkin and Tchaikovsky's names on it?

Bests,
