Content:
This work follows the life trajectory of a single work of fiction from its initial inspiration to its reception by reviewers and readers. The subject is 'Jarrettsville', a historical novel by Cornelia Nixon, which was published in 2009 and based on an actual murder committed by an ancestor of Nixon's in the postbellum South. The text takes you behind the scenes to examine how 'Jarrettsville' was shepherded across three interdependent fields - authoring, publishing, and reading - and how it was transformed by its journey.
