With Janet Frame’s funeral over, the literary world is waiting to see what she may have left for publication after her death – with speculation there might even be a fourth volume of her autobiography.
Frame published her last novel, The Carpathians, in 1988 and finished the third volume of her autobiography in 1984 – but it traced her life only to the mid-1960s.
She was a compulsive writer of poetry, but had not published a poetry volume since 1967.
Her biographer, Michael King, said she was writing until as recently as three months ago, and was believed to have made a new will in the last few months when she knew she was dying.
