P. J. CAPELOTTI PAPERS
1941-2000

MSG# 45

SERIES II

MANUSCRIPTS

DATES:
.75'  (1.5 Boxes) 1979-1982

Series II, Manuscripts, consists of articles, essays, novels, and collections of essays in various stages of completion. The unpublished 1979 novel, The Panacea Papers, is perhaps most well documented, with four long-hand notebooks and the corrected manuscript mostly intact. Many of the early essays and articles were collected into a book, Coming of Age on the Third Planet, which was turned down by Bertha Klausner, the literary agent, in the summer of 1981.
