        how do you know, have you read them?

        The Jodorowsky 'Dune' screenplay

        the whole storybook was online recently, there was even a googledrive but the link doesn't work any longer. It's not exactly 'lost', there's like 5 complete copies on earth not including the complete digital scans

          I don't think the complete book was ever online. The google drive you are referencing wasn't complete.

    De Quincey's Lost Suspiria. Can't believe that junkie would watch his works go up in flames and just go meh that sucks.

      Funny. I've read the Suspiria de Profundis collection, and recollect that some of it concerns damaged memory, but a lost work I do not recollect. Aar there's a ton of D extant

        There were works he was meant to add to it but he either never finished them or just burned them since he was so fricked up on opium that he constantly set himself and his belongings on fire. There are titles of suspiria he meant to publish and just from that alone you could tell they would be fire.

      Aristotle's dialogues. The one in which Cicero described as being "rivers of gold" in contrast to Plato's "rivers of silver". I would've liked to read Dostoevsky's "The Life of A Great Sinner", the unfinished sequel to The Brother's Karamazov.

      Also, Homer's Margites epic poem.

      This. If only xerox existed in those days.

      I was just thinking about this! Isle of the Cross by Melville.

      Also this. How the frick could something that important get lost like that?

        There were likely many originals there, but even if it were just a lot of copies, that would have preserved a ton of things that are lost today. It was a massive blow to literature

    What would Proust have done? Dosto? Kafka? What would they have written after. What if Rimbaud continued writing poetry

      Rimbaud was just done with poetry since he knew that being in that milieu meant fighting off more french pedophiles.
