4.0 out of 5 stars Well-Worded Wisdom, July 23, 2004
This review is from: Writing 1 Novel P (Paperback)
This analysis of 16 years of authorial labor is a bit thick at times, and several sections in it would appeal only to close friends of the author for their overbearing detail. But these faults are easily forgiven for Wallace's frequently lyrical musings on the craft and his apt relatings of his personal quirks. The book he eventually shapes is, I believe, wholly unworthy of all this, but little of the overall impact is missed if you're no fan of pop fiction--much of his advice applies to the art of the novelist itself.

Only writers and devoted readers will really enjoy this, but if you classify yourself as one or both of these, then hunt this little tome down and fuel your inner spark.
