“Yo entiendo por libros perdidos aquellos que el autor escribió, aunque en alguna ocasión no llegó a terminarlos; son libros que alguien vio, tal vez incluso leyó, y que luego fueron destruidos y nunca más se supo de ellos.”
Giorgio van Straten, Storie di libri perduti

“in Oslo during one of his journeys that he met the poet Nordahl Grieg, a peculiar Norwegian Stalinist who became the inspiration for his first novel, Ultramarine. There are those who maintain that this book was plagiarized from the writings of Grieg, as Lowry himself partially admitted in a letter to the Scandinavian author: Much in Ultramarine is a paraphrase, a plagiarism, or a parody of what you have written.”
Giorgio Van Straten, In Search of Lost Books: The Forgotten Stories of Eight Mythical Volumes
