The reader’s room in a publishing house is where unsolicited manuscripts end up from authors who are hoping to get discovered. Then readers read them looking for the gem in the slush pile. Great work if you can get it I think. And so begins this literary mystery. A book is discovered, published, becomes a best-seller, and is nominated for a top prize. But the author communicates only periodically through email and never really materializes at all. Editor Violaine Lepage becomes involved in figuring out what’s going on in this delightful little book. Beautifully written with interesting characters.
This title is available 24/7 through downloadable ebook via hoopla on the library website and in print.
Carol is the Director of the Churchill County Library which is currently as quiet as some people think a library should be.
