Who is "Dickless", Bruce?
Charles K. Dickless, amateur writer and very mior essayist. He finished
Charles Dickens's "Mystery of Edwin Drood." However, the public did not
readily accept Dickless's solution that Drood had been eaten by a giant
tennis-playing blancmange and the "ending" was not included in the complete
Dickens canon.
He wasna so much a man as... a blancmange!
