are you sure of those letters?
The letters are correct. He wrote 3 down - a well known playground in New York

the only thing I can find is

(Lawrence) Ferlinghetti

If my 13ac universal, 27ac belletrist & 29ac goldfinger are correct
LF looks better as he wrote 'A Coney Island of the Mind'
Hi
Those were my conclusions
Geoff
Ferlinghetti wrote A Coney Island
What is the drift of 4d?
Hi
4d is a straightforward clue (nothing literary) with the wordplay first and definition last two words.
Incidentally, has anyone spotted spelling variations in answer to 17d
Geoff
Ferlinghetti wrote HER, a possessive form of SHE (Haggard success)
2Yes. Ravelled or raveled
I've found no justification for the double 'l' but that is accepted as answer.
Geoff
4D - hierurgy. Hier (German for here), UR (ancient city) and gy - extremes of gladly.
OED and chambers give the double l for ravelled. I am happy with them as authorities
I got onto friends at the OED. Geoff, look up the latest edition online for l's in ravel(l)ed.
