Where Does an Epigraph Go in a Book?

An epigraph is a short standalone quote, line, or paragraph that appears at the beginning of a book.

Does epigraph go before or after title?

An epigraph may also appear at the head of a chapter or other major division in a book, where it typically follows the chapter number (or other number) and any chapter title or other heading. An epigraph to a story usually follows the story's title.

Can an epigraph be at the end of a book?

An epigraph usually appears on the first page of a novel, before the action begins, but it can also make appearances throughout a story. It can be especially powerful at the end of a work, depending on the denouement.
