Beside the received books

Pseudepigrapha are writings that travel under another name, or that stand just outside a received list of books. The name is used here in that older sense. It is not a claim that the work is forged. It is a house for what sits beside the books already received.

Shelves

Three shelves

The writings gathered here begin with Life After Lies and open onto three shelves: the memoir and compiled work; research into attributed and hidden books; and inversions, kept under the mark Wright right / Rite.
