Developmental notes of Ian Rankin, and others, for his short novel ‘Doors Open’, written for 'The New York Times Magazine'., 2006-2007.
Scope and Contents
Most of the notes are undated. The distinction between the notes and drafts is often unclear. Some notes have been revisited and subsequently annotated by Rankin as his development of the novel progressed. As far as possible, evidence of development and changes in theme and plot have been used to inform the arrangement.
The notes include editorial notes of Ilena Silverman (Story Editor, New York Times) and Megan L. (New York Times).
