"Boz's Opinions of Us": Whitman, Dickens, and the Forged Letter

Abstract

Looks at Whitman's 1842 Evening Tattler article on Dickens and examines Whitman's involvement in publishing a forged letter by Dickens, suggesting that the episode "complicates our understanding" of Whitman's generally positive feelings about Dickens.
