The backstories of the publishing world are fascinating to me. Often all we see are the polished finished products on the shelf, with no clue about the circuitous, torturous path the books took to get there. What with the egos, the personality conflicts, the crushed hopes and the serendipitous successes, the history of a novel can be as interesting as the history of an "ordinary" person.
By the way, I believe the word meant is 'disdained.'
