Essays that Cut to the Bone,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Gently into the Land of the Meateaters (Hardcover)
Gently into the Land of the Meateaters is a wonderful collection of essays that cuts straight to the bone. I read it because James Sallis is a writer who I admire and I was hoping to get some insight into his work. There was much in the collection that writers can use, but the essays have much to say about life in addition to writing. There is both humor and tragedy, but through it all there are simply great sentences and paragraphs that convey things of importance. Highly recommended.

A fascinating collection of essays and observations.,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gently into the Land of the Meateaters (Hardcover)
Gently Into The Land Of The Meateaters is a fascinating collection of James Sallis' autobiographical essays and observations as he draws meaning from tragedy, provides solace to the weak and vulnerable, gathers truth from love, understanding from what we do to each other; and solace from what we do to try to make up for it. Sallis is an experienced and gifted writer able to convey directly to his reader a sense of intimacy, candor, insight, and inspiration.
