I thought EP's daughter picked up the castle. Are you implying that Mary
married Boris just for the castle? How do you know this? Do you read
minds perchance? And even if she did marry the guy for his castle, how does
this reflect on Ez himself? Are you trying to revive "guilt by association"?

In answer to this particular point: the castle was purchased with Pound's
royalties funneled through Dorothy (since EP legally couldn't even buy
toilet paper) to Mary.  He too wanted a Yeatsian tower.  Anyway, Mary
didn't depend on hubby for that.
