The manuscript of an unpublished novel of Jeanette Winterson was apparently left at an Underground station in London by a staff of the publisher, Penguin.

A teacher on her way home after a night out found the 134-pages manuscript of The Stone Gods lying on a bench at the train station. Thankfully, she recognized the name of the author as she had read another of the author’s book, Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit, for her A-levels.

You can read more about it on this BBC News article.
