Amazon’s Clout Helps Debut Novel The Wall Street Journal looks at how David Wroblewski’s debut novel THE STORY OF EDGAR SAWTELLE (Ecco) benefited from being championed by Amazon.com. The 566-page literary novel has already gone into its seventh printing — a reported total of 90,000 copies — a week after its publication.
