Beagle and Unicorn - back in control

[MsAmerica]

Funny, it seemed as if this book was much more widely known in the past, and I hope it has a resurgence.

Peter Beagle, Author of ‘The Last Unicorn,’ Is Back In Control
By Elizabeth A. Harris

After a lifetime writing whimsical stories and struggling to cover his bills, Beagle lost control of his intellectual property to his manager, Connor Freff Cochran, who also controlled his finances, and later claimed to friends and family that Beagle had dementia.

Now, after a lengthy court battle in which he accused Cochran of financial elder abuse, Beagle has the rights to his work back, and is making the most of it: A new edition of “The Last Unicorn” came out in July, a sequel called “The Way Home” is scheduled for publication next year, and he has another novel out on submission to his publisher.

Love this book, still got a battered copy I've had since secondary school. I even love the film, dodgy singing and all. Cautiously curious about a sequel.

Thanks for the post.

I have no idea where my copy may be, but this has me wanting to re-read it, so many I'll look for a cheap used copy or go to the library.
