Tales of prodigies are so fascinating and so often tragic. Now I feel like watching Little Man Tate again.

I guess I've seen too episodes of Forensic Files late at night because it seems obvious the husband did it. Maybe he didn't, maybe there's a family somewhere with stacks of manuscripts that their grandmother Barbara wrote, marvelous tales that were never published. I hope that is the case but I doubt it.
