    The longest novel in Latin or Cyrillic alphabets is Henry Darger's The Story of the Vivian Girls. The illustrated fantasy novel manuscript is typed single-spaced on 15,145 pages in 10 volumes. Discovered after Darger's death, the manuscript has never been published. The total number of words has not been estimated; some believe this might be the longest novel ever written. The most conservative guess will put this in the million-word realm, possibly into tens of millions[citation needed].
