Starting in August , the Independent began publishing a series of short pieces by Christopher Fowler, thriller writer and dramatist, devoted to the subject of &#;forgotten authors.&#; As Fowler himself admitted, &#;Nobody wants to be thought of as vanished, but shelf-life is fleeting. With stock in chain stores governed by computers, the only way of finding certain books is to head for independents or to search online.&#;
Looking through his articles, I&#;m surprised, as a veteran browser of shelves of used books, to find names like Mazo de la Roche, Mary Renault, Georgette Heyer, and John Dickson Carr. But on reflection, that probably says more about my age than the awareness of today&#;s readers.
