The Enthusiasts: Garen and Kirk Drussai, part x

A bit more on Garen Drussai.  Apparently, she had two letters published in The Saturday Review.  The later letter came out in 1970.  It was a review of Z by Vassilis Vassilikos.  The first, for Fortean purposes, is more interesting.  It was published in 1955 and referenced an article on genius.

Drussai wrote recommending another genius:

“You will be flooded with outraged ‘Where is my pet genius?’  But perhaps the name of Nikolai Tesla, sometime in the future, will be taken out of its wraps—to be appreciated by a more knowledgeable humanity.”

Tesla, of course, was the subject of Fortean, occult, and science fiction speculation.
