Listener No 4547: Titles by Schadenfreude

Not much to say this week with the posthumous publication of a puzzle by Schadenfreude. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a giant in our corner of the crossword world. He had over 250 puzzles published, including 27 Listeners where subjects included Hitchcock, American presidents, Buridan’s Ass and snooker, as well as this week’s Marlene Dietrich & Cecil Lewis. Many more appeared over at the Inquisitor, as well as at EV where he was Oxymoron. I understand that there are some of his puzzles that remain unpublished, so hopefully we will get to enjoy his work just a few more times. Thanks for all the entertainment, Schadenfreude. RIP.
