Curiosities Of Literature by John Sutherland
A lively collection of short essays that excavates the odd, forgotten and quirky corners of literary history, revealing surprising anecdotes about authors, eccentric publications, obscure texts, misprints and reception histories; mixing scholarly sleuthing with anecdotal wit, it uncovers little-known stories behind well-known works, explores bibliographic and marginal curiosities, and shows how cultural and publishing contexts shape what becomes canonical.
