Summary

Is it possible to create an enjoyable and mysterious history of literature? Every author-novelist, philosopher, poet, or essayist-has any enigma to offer or reveal, either about their lives or about their works. For instance, do we know exactly where Cervantes was born? Are we sure that Conan Doyle was not a murderer? Why did Comte decide to create his own religion? Did Jose Cadalso exhume his girlfriend's corpse? Was Corneille Moiré's ghostwriter? Was Berbiguier harassed by imps? Maybe Jules Verne did belong to a secret society. Have any works been inspired by dreams-or by insanity? What kind of life did Andersen, Emilio Salgari, or Jack London lead? Did Casanova really see a UFO? Secrets and Mysteries in the History of Literatureincludes thirty-two enigmas, all equally disparate, all equally extraordinary.
