I was reminded just recently of the writer Jerzey Kosinski - the reference was to Being There, but his best book was The Painted Bird, about an abandoned orphan in Russia leading up to WWII. This is outsider fiction the way art brut is outsider art. Kosinski got into some trouble later on in his career, after he got successful enough to excite envy I suppose. In any case, for the umpteenth time, YOU CANNOT COPYRIGHT A PLOT !!!
