London Book Fair 2014: Big books, no huge book

While no single title has emerged as the hot book of this year’s London Book Fair, a number of titles were generating buzz as the fair kicked off on Tuesday.

One of the hottest of those titles is, arguably, a memoir represented by William Morris Endeavor’s Bill Clegg called Darling Days. Dan Halpern at Ecco acquired North American rights to the book in the States about a week before the fair in a deal insiders have said was worth $700,000.
