Product description

This work attempts to take the reader on a journey beyond the boundaries set by pages of a book or words of a poem or stage lights, it is about a great secret, despite its brevity, aiming to make what is behind the pages of books visible: the authors and their biographies, their whims, their genius, and sometimes their despair, and everything that books conceal between their folds of questions: why were some books deprived of signing events? What is the nature of the book that influenced the Soviet intelligence agency? Which book did Nazi intelligence comment on? And what is the angle that achieved extraordinary sales after being rejected by many publishing houses? Every book, from the moment it sees the light in its creator’s mind until it reaches the hands of readers, passes through dozens of small moments filled with coincidence or persistence, moments charged with happiness and, most often, with pain. The one in your hands is to rewrite it to capture very important details about some great milestones in the forgotten history of literature.
