Not so. I'm reading all this with great interest, but don't feel confident
to comment yet. Except that the multiple personality theory seems to contradict
VN's positive statements in Strong Opinions about Shade's
emotional-spiritual life (doesn't sound like what you would say about one half
of a split) and about Kinbote's being a madman who will kill himself shortly
after finsihing work on the book. Also, hasn't DN told us that VN denied the
single-author theory of "Pale Fire"?
Incidentally, now that I have supplied Dmitri with the evidence he
requested, I should be grateful to know his present considered opinion on the
putative line 1000 of "Pale Fire".
