Missing Pages

Missing Pages

To get to the top of the best-seller list takes more than just writing a good book. And going from acclaimed author to scandalous fraud can happen with the turn of a page. Like Kaavya Viswanathan - the young phenom whose book contained plagiarized passages. Or Dan Mallory, the author of The Woman in the Window whose life of adversity was an elaborate hoax played upon the literary community.

The eight-part podcast series “Missing Pages” from The Podglomerate dives into stories of famous authors brought low by their misdeeds and misrepresentations. Host Bethanne Patrick also explores the industry culture and social biases that contributed to the controversies in the first place.

OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "MISSING PAGES" BEGIN IN THE LAST 9 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.
