sending this review very aggressively & meaningfully to a certain homerist whose manuscript I patiently read & reread and insulted until it was published but who never once told me how Parry died should I have known myself, already? sure but I didn't!https://twitter.com/Jo_Livingstone/status/1388128478936158208 …

I took a long grad class with the astonishing name of "The Orality/Literacy Heuristic" and didn't know either. Do these people not have publicists

apologies to the mistreated memory of joan vollmer but if this was marian's doing, and I am not saying it was, I have no idea, this is a better murder excuse than burroughs's or frankly anyone's "he was trying to put on a shirt with a gun in it and got confused" and maybe he was!

Here are the major options 1. Shot accidentally directly thru the heart while "jostling" a gun tangled in a shirt (with its safety off? Parry was famousely good with machines) 2. Shot on purpose by gorgeous and mistreated wife 3. Suicide.....while getting dressed
