supergee reports that Colin Wilson has died. Strangely, I find this difficult to confirm. None of the British newspapers I've checked have, as of the moment, reported his death, except possibly the Times, which hides its stuff behind a paywall.

The only other sources I can find are a couple of bloggers, Mike Glyer among them.
Surely he hasn't fallen so far into obscurity as that?
