The examples here are all taken from Pinterest, and I believe the ones towards the end are from <em>Candide<\/em> but that&#8217;s only a guess. In a reversal of the usual state of affairs, Odle&#8217;s career has been overshadowed by that of his wife, Dorothy M. Richardson, a Modernist novelist of some note. But the neglect has been addressed recently with the publication in 2012 of a monograph, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.booksandthings.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>The Life and Work of Alan Odle<\/em><\/a> by Martin Steenson. <a href=\"http:\/\/wormwoodiana.blogspot.co.uk\/2012\/07\/the-extravaganzas-of-alan-odle.html\" target=\"_blank\">Mark Valentine<\/a> reviewed the book at Wormwoodiana.
