Hello, everybody! I am new to Absolute Write so forgive me if someone has already asked this question. I read a review in The New Yorker of a book of collected rejection letters written to very famous writers but this was some time ago - maybe five years? And I have looked high and low for that book or one like it to no avail. Has anybody seen anything like this?
I remember two rejections particularly - one written to Gertrude Stein in the odd, disjointed way that SHE wrote - it was SO funny. And the other to Nabokov telling him that Lolita should be "buried under a rock for a thousand years".
