On the character of Wilfrid Voynich

[asteckley]

She takes very strong issue with Orioli's description of Voynich, and quotes how Voynich's wife descibed him as having the head and shoulders of a 'Norwegian god'.

Small correction -- Sowerby did not quote his wife describing him in that way. Sowerby herself described him that way and felt that Ethel Voynich must have been thinking of her husband when she used that phrase in one of her books.
