Explore the stories behind four of the finest writers who ever put pen to paper and whose lives themselves could provide the narrative to a bestseller. Remember H.G. Wells, who was hailed as a visionary and prophet during his lifetime and will be remembered as the man who invented tomorrow. Explore the mind of James Joyce, an author who was condemned as a satanic blasphemer and exiled from his native Ireland. Discover why Edgar Allan Poe has been painted as a tormented alcoholic and drug addict when the truth is that Poe was both blessed and cursed by his genius.
