![]() ![]() Luckily for us, Who Was Changed and Who Was Dead, originally published in 1954, has been rescued by the new publishing project Dorothy.Īn aberrant pastoral as smart as this one could only come from someone with a biography as nutty and wonderful as Comyns’s. Her books are so funny, so exact, so twisted, you imagine their appeal would last for generations. ![]() Tragic, comic and completely bonkers all in one, I’d go as far as to call her something of a neglected genius.Ĭomyns’s own witchy way of looking at the world arises from her resourceful craft-her wordsmithery-which like a spell or a charm gives her fiction a unique flavor, and has won her a cult following.Ĭomyns is one of those writers you can barely believe ever goes out of print. Comyns’ novel is deranged in ways that shouldn’t be disclosed. ![]()
