Below is a link to an article I wrote for "The Gazette" which is the journal of The Wolfe Pack the official literary society devoted to the author Rex Stout and his most famous literary creation the detective Nero Wolfe.
I was helped also by members of The Joseph Conrad Society (UK)
The article is about a visit Rex Stout made (or didn't make) to Conrad in 1922.
