A. J. A. Symon's Quest for Corvo (1934) has me in its grip. It is an intriguing exercise in literary pathography whose subject is an English eccentric of the first magnitude. I'm on p. 222. Today I came across a high-class literary site, The Yellow Nineties, whereat I read this entry about our man.
Thanks again to Hector C. for referring me to this oddball.
I've got a whole category on oddballs. (68 entries and counting)
