Rivals may start out as friends. Even friends like a bit of rivalry at times, it might spur them on to achieve more themselves. It might also bring out the worst of us as competition turns into more negative vices. In this volume such vaulted authors as Louisa May Alcott, F Scott Fitzgerald, Guy de Maupassant, and a host of literary giants bring this unsettling genre into sharp focus. Genius in every name.
