With the latest controversy surrounding the recall of "The Last Train From Hiroshima" by Charles Pellegrino, the book publishing industry is having to take a hard look at the line between creative nonfiction and fiction.
In a time when self-publishing and digital publishing let anyone with a computer create a book, the traditional publishing establishment is positioning itself as one that has a product of premium quality. Publishers, however, still maintain that the responsibility for errors and falsifications lies with authors.
