  • Question

  • Posthumous Publication occurs when a book is published after the author's death. Which situation below is the best example of Posthumous Publication?


  • Options
  • A. Richard's illness took his life before he was able to enjoy the amazing early reviews of his novel.
  • B. Melissa's publisher cancels her book contract after she fails to deliver the manuscript on time.
  • C. Clarence never thought he'd live to see the third book in his trilogy published.
  • D. Elizabeth is honored with a prestigious literary award for her writing career and her daughter accepts the award on behalf of her deceased mother.

  • Correct Answer
  • Richard's illness took his life before he was able to enjoy the amazing early reviews of his novel. 

    Explanation
    Although choice d also mentions a writer who has died, it does not state that one of the writer's books was published after her death, only that she received an award. Choice a states that Richard wasn't around to see the early reviews of his novel, therefore implying that Richard died before the book was published. The other two options depict living writers.
