From a New York Times obituary yesterday —
"… the thoroughly debauched, terrifyingly prolific and
mercifully fictional P.D.Q. Bach died on Tuesday at his home
in Bearsville, a hamlet outside Woodstock, N.Y. He was 88."
Later in the obituary, the real name of P.D.Q. Bach —
"… Johann Peter Schickele was born on July 17, 1935, in Ames, Iowa…."
"Alas, poor Johann."
