Searching for the “Confederacy of Dunces” Manuscript
I had nearly given up on the question of the original manuscript until a year ago when I interviewed Lynda Martin, the sister of Toole’s best friend in high school. “The manuscript?” she said in a soft southern accent. “Yes, well I have it in my closet here at home.”
An excellent tale of literary sleuthing from Cory Maclauchlin in The Millions.
