From the rear cover

"Mullan shows how literary anonymity excites its opposite--curiosity, controversy, conflict, and notoriety. Anonymity is accessible, thorough, and interesting."--Sophie Gee, author of The Scandal of the Season: A Novel

"A great book. Mullan's historical reach and subtle eye equip him to write a witty, and incisive, biography of Anonymous."--Nicholas Dames, Columbia University
