Sinopsis:
Why was Thomas Hardy's first novel never published? What happened to the manuscript of the long-promised magnum opus that Truman Capote never delivered? These and many other intriguing mysteries are uncovered in this comprehensive guide to literature's lost and unfinished masterpieces. Each book, from Karl Marx's comic novel Scorpion and Felix to Stephenie Meyer's Twilight spin-off Midnight Sun, is examined in-depth, with selected entries featuring manuscript extracts. Specially commissioned covers also illustrate each entry, making this a book that will be loved by bookworms everywhere.
