“It is possible that no two copies are identical. Instead of thinking about mechanical regularity, you need to think about change and fluidity to understand the 1855 (version),” Price said. “We tend to think of books as stable objects, but you might think of his first edition as vibrating and humming. When completed, the project will record and provide background on each variation. Kenneth Price, Hillegass Professor of English and the center’s co-director, has earned a three-year, $300,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities to examine at least 20 copies of the original 1855 edition of “Leaves of Grass.” The CDRH will start a digital variorum – a collection containing different versions of the text – on the Walt Whitman Archive. Now, researchers from the University of Nebraska’s Center for Digital Research in the Humanities are identifying and cataloging those variations.

After purloining the neighbors' pets, the two use paint, glitter and Christmas decorations previously nabbed from other people's yards to transform the animals into "rare beasts." They then display the critters in a puppet theater that they've stolen from a kindergarten classroom and pull the menagerie through town on an old cart. In the absence of any parents, the siblings spend their days harassing each other and plotting ways to create "mischief and mayhem." Learning from TV that collectors pay high prices for exotic animals, the diabolic duo devise a money-raising scheme to fund various elaborate pranks (e.g., dumping sacks of white pepper into muffin batter at a bakery). The two live in a grimy, gloomy mansion with Pet, "a matted ball of long, dark hair, similar in appearance to an old dirty wig" Pet is also one-eyed, as the nifty lenticular eye affixed to the book's cover stresses.

He haunted New York in the 1980s and 1990s, preying on gay men, but the sexuality of his victims coupled with the AIDS crisis of the time mean that hardly anyone even remembers he was active.
