Indeed, so it seems. It is probably my memory. Part of my 'conspiracy theory' was that Ethel knew that the VMs was written as part of a Bolshevik plot, and made allusions to it in her spy novel. Later I found out that the chronology was wrong, because the Gadfly was written too early for that. This aspect was not important anyway, and I wonder if it is at all....
Cheers, Rene
