Sometimes the discussion questions are prepared by publishers, especially in school editions. But I mean first time novels, with long introductions assuming that this is going to be a great work that is ordered by teachers and taught in classrooms. I've only seen a handful of these over the years, but in each case, there was a distinct sense that the author was just so staggered by their own genius, they felt obliged to offer direction in the study of their novel. In one case, the extra material was something like eight pages of questions, guidance, and further elucidations on important libertarian thought.
