Sobre este artículo
New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1996. NF/NF-F. Stated First Edition with no other printings listed. The book is near fine with solid hinges. Slight soiling and ½-inch light soil spot on top exterior pages. The bottom of spine is mildly bumped with a slight bump to back bottom corner. Otherwise tight and clean with no interior writing, previous owner's signature, bookplate or markings and not BCE, ex-library, or remaindered. The dust jacket is near fine/fine with no rips or tears and not price-clipped ($26.00). Winner of the 1996 National Book Critics Award for criticism. In a protective New Brodart cover.
How do writers find an appropriate form to relay their ideas and thoughts? These 19 essays celebrate precision intellectual workmanship and showcase multifaceted models of how writing and thinking relate to life. Not exactly a casual read, but many claim Gass to be inspirational, with "essays that give off light with the profligacy of a sun on steroids".
