Dear reader,
The Manuscript is a love story inspired by the entanglement of the lore, musings, and imagery of Taylor Swift's song lyric universe.
When the Albatross Hotel on Coney Island is set ablaze in 1922, a tortured poet named Alison leaves behind her cursed manuscript.
100 years later, on the eve of her seventeenth birthday, Betty finds herself falling in love with a boy named Peter at NYU. Things become complicated when she runs into her ex-James while visiting home for the holiday break. Betty and James find themselves locked back in a fast and heated romance, and Betty becomes wrapped up in a love triangle of doubt and painful deceit.
In another timeline, Marjorie and John have made it through World War 2, but not without tragedy. A new friendship tests everyone when John meets Augustina, the widower of his comrade Jack.
Will Alison's cursed manuscript continue to weave an invisible string into the love affairs of Betty and Augustina? This web of fiction is for every Swiftie who can relate to even more unbearable feelings of yearning, love, and loss - all too well.
