The Loss Library and Other Unfinished Stories
Ivan VladislaviĆ
Seagull Books 112 pages with 22 colour illustrations, 1250

The South African writer Ivan Vladislavić explores the problems and potentials of the fictions he could not bring himself to write. Drawing from his notebooks of the past 20 years, Vladislavić records a range of ideas for stories and examines where they came from and why they eluded him. An extraordinary book about both the nature of novels and the process of writing.
