Description
“Hatred of Sham and Fake” was one motto of The Papyrus (1903-1912), which Irish-born writer Michael Monahan self-published sporadically. He penned most of the texts, including poems, aphorisms, memoir essays and literary criticism. This issue warns readers to avoid Zoe’s first novel, The Color of His Soul, since it resulted from her “habit of making copy out of her friends.” Yet he remained her friend, giving her advice on running The East Side.
