Overview
- NielsenIQ Book Data told the BBC the title, Flora And Fern: Kindness Along The Way, has been marked “withdrawn from sale” at the publisher’s request.
- The book was first scheduled for October 9, later shown on Amazon with a revised November 20 date, and has now been removed from online listings.
- New Frontier Publishing and representatives for Ferguson did not respond to requests for comment, according to multiple reports.
- Book trade commentator Neill Denny said delaying or withholding the release “makes total sense commercially” given current controversies.
- Several charities ended Ferguson’s patron roles after a 2011 email praising Jeffrey Epstein became public, while other publishers have indicated some of her past titles remain in print.
