The work retells the events of "Twilight", but is written from the perspective of Edward Cullen instead of that of the series' usual narrating character Bella Swan. Meyer stated that "Twilight" was to be the only book from the series that she planned to rewrite from Edward's perspective. To give them a better feel of Edward's character, Meyer allowed Catherine Hardwicke, the director of the film adaptation of "Twilight", and Robert Pattinson, the actor playing Edward, to read some completed chapters
