Thanks for the links to Dot and Bill - some very interesting stuff there which I enjoyed reading.
But the thingy I'm looking for isn't actually written by Dorothy - it is a modern, female (I think) writer, who is making the point (again, I think!) that Dorothy would have been noted as a better poet than her brother, if it wasn't for the fact that she had to spend all of her time looking after him. (It is a feminist dig at the supposed helplessness of men generally)
