- W2484757645 abstract "Although the spurious continuations, editorial sequels and textual rewritings of The Mystery of Edwin Drood (1870) are proof of its incredible powers of survival, Dickens’s incomplete novel is pervaded by a paradigm of dissolution and decomposition that characterises and determines its thematic and narrative structure. The various attempts to offer a solution and an epilogue to The Mystery of Edwin Drood are indicative of the endless rebirths of Dickens’s last book, but also of the inherent impossibility of closing it.1 Vermont printer Thomas James reported in 1873 that Dickens’s very spirit had inspired him with the conclusion of the story. The episode was so convincing that Arthur Conan Doyle, who noticed its similarities to the novelist’s peculiar literary style, praised this American ‘Version’. The title page of The Mystery of Edwin Drood Complete: Part the Second claimed that the book was ‘By the Spirit Pen of Charles Dickens, through a Medium’. A burlesque and parodie sequel to The Mystery of Edwin Drood, entitled The Cloven Foot (and later republished in Britain as The Mystery of Mr. E. Drood: An Adaptation), was written soon after Dickens’s death by an American writer named R. H. Newell (‘Orpheus C. Kerr’). In January 1914 a fictional trial for murder was organised by the Dickens Fellowship in London to ascertain the truth on the Drood case." @default.
