Phillip Ward is also the editor of Quentin Crisp's forthcoming final book, DUSTY ANSWERS, which contains Mr. Crisp's standard wit, philosophy and literary prose as well as his collected poetry, while focusing on the closure of his unique life. Many thanks to Mr. Ward for his guidance and advice on this new medium.
Wolfskin
A friend of Quentin's has added his thoughts to the His Friends section and also very generously allowed me to re-produce some of his photos of Quentin in the Gallery. Check out room fifteen.
It has been through the continuing contact, positive comments, support and contributions from his friends, that has made this site really come to life. My very sincere thanks to you all.
I would also like to make a very personal 'thank you' to the following persons :-
To my sister Heather S. Kelly She first introduced me to the works of Quentin Crisp, more years ago than I care to remember, and who contributed the first entry in my Guest Book, just to get me started off.
She has been supportive throughout and continuously encouraging even when things got tough.
Last but by no means least, I would like to thank my wife Karen Curlett Kelly. She is also an admirer of Quentin and has been fully supportive and encouraging throughout. She gave me some excellent ideas for the site, including the BookCase, and the Game of Life. She once commented to me that if people studied Quentin's philosophy of life, perhaps the world would be a better place and the people in it a bit more human.
I couldn't put it better than that!
My thanks to you all!
