Книга написанная женщиной, которой никогда не существовало.

На комик–коне в Сан–Диего мало кому известная писательница Берил Эванс подписывала всем желающим свою малюсенькую детскую книжку.
Через несколько часов эта книжка станет одной из самых дорогих, выпущенных в этом году — уже сейчас на Ebay немногочисленные экземпляры торгуются от 600 до 5000 долларов.
Все дело в том, что написана она была в 1942 году женщиной, которой никогда не существовало.
Берил Эванс — персонаж саги Стивена Кинга "Темная Башня". В одной из версий нашей реальности она сочинила сказку, которая сыграла не последнюю роль в одном из томов "Темной Башни" ("Пустоши", 1991): ее герой, паровозик Чарли, является ментальным эхом огромного разумного поезда Блейн Моно, пленниками которого суждено оказаться стрелку Роланду и его ка–тету. В нашем мире Эванс книжку написать не успела, потому что ее убил маньяк.
Думаю, не нужно объяснять, что на самом деле "Чарли Чу–Чу", 150 экземпляров которой подписала в пятницу актриса Эллисон Дэвис, сыгравшая роль Берил, в действительности сочинил сам Кинг (и даже получил личный экземпляр с автографом — как справедливо заметило издание Entertainmanet Weekly, не каждому писателю дано получить в дар книжку, подписанную собственным персонажем), и именно это тут же сделало ее дорогущим раритетом.
