Sydney Sheldon became a discovery for the world of “big literature” right after his first book, which received several awards and gave the writer the portion of needed positivity that carried him for years of fruitful creativity. Unfortunately, it was only “To Grab the Mask” that turned out to be the most highly appreciated—after Sheldon, only film adaptations followed, without any thought of other rewards. Readers eagerly listened to every new story, giving their own definition of bestsellers. But sales climbed one peak after another, while acceptance of his own significance still didn’t come.
