Forgotten Classics are lesser-known short stories, essays, and longer works of both fiction and non-fiction. Some of the Forgotten Classics were either extremely popular or critically successful at the time; others had a lasting influence on the next generation of writers and thinkers. All have now faded into relative obscurity, even those written by still famous authors.
Selected chapters or episodes will be free to download as pdf documents, and the complete works will be available for purchase a reasonable time after the initial publication. In addition to the pdf copies of the Classics themselves, these pages will also include synopses, author information, and reviews.
