Oh, me AND the Ludmila-is-the-Queen-of-Zern truthers are BOTH right

Assigning whimsy to myself

NYRB Classics put money behind it, re-releasing it and paying to plant several well placed reviews that dictated people to think this was a forgotten masterwork. It was not organically re-discovered it was pushed and funded
