Summary: Stuart Kelly is a freelance critic and writer and the Literary Editor of Scotland on Sunday. In his new paperback, 'The Book of Lost Books - An Incomplete History of All the Great Books You'll Never Read', Kelly provides an witty and enjoyable account of history's books that never quite saw the light of day. From authors of varying degrees of fame and popularity, Kelly unearths the books that were destroyed, misplaced, never finished, or never even begun - from ancient Greek and Arabic masters through Shakespeare, Dante and Hemingway right up to the present day.
