Blind Item #6 - Reader Blind
There was an anniversary recently to do with very well known book that is often used in whole or in excerpts in high schools.
Maybe one day there will be a serious discussion of who actually wrote this book. A very small part of it actually comes from the author known by the public who was very young when she was supposedly writing it.
The vast majority of the book was written by a close family member as well as another writer who later sued the family member and won a financial settlement.
While we are it, let's look at the family member. Far from being heroic, he did business with the group he and his family were hiding from selling them, among other things, chemicals that could be used in explosive weapons.
