Set in the twilight of the nineteenth century, this historical novel follows the daring exploits of 'bookaneers' who raced to pirate international literary works before the advent of modern copyright laws. Matthew Pearl meticulously reconstructs the cutthroat world of Victorian-era publishing, blending suspense with a deep appreciation for the physical history of the book.
