We'll visit the University of Southern Maine's Glickman Family Library.
Imaginary Books: Lost, Unfinished and Fictive Works is a cross between a book exhibition and a conceptual art installation consisting of more than 100 items from Reid Byers's collection. These imaginary books are examples of fictional works that only exist in fiction, or books that were planned and left unfinished or for which there is no known surviving copy. These have all found their 3-D form with the help of printers, bookbinders, artists, and calligraphers. Examples include Shakespeare's Love's Labor's Won, the lost sequel to Love's Labor's Lost, and Hemingway's first novel which was in his wife's valise, stolen at the Gare de Lyon in 1922.
