Lynn Caponera, president of the Maurice Sendak Foundation, has found a typewritten manuscript co-authored by Sendak and his frequent collaborator, Arthur Yorinks. The manuscript and illustrations are complete. Sendak created them in 1990 to accompany a London Symphony Orchestra performance of Leoš Janáček’s Rikadla, a 1927 composition that set a series of nonsense Czech nursery rhymes to music. The book titled Presto and Zesto in Limboland, will be published by Michael di Capua Books/HarperCollins in 2018.
