Outstanding Resource for Aspiring Writers and Instructors,
By "greekfinn" (Helsinki, Finland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Writing Exploratory Essays (Paperback)
This book offers a range of readings from James Baldwin's Notes of a Native Son to Gloria Steinem's Unlearning Romance, plus readings by Woody Allen, Henry David Thoreau and Bharati Mukherjee. It's an inspiring collection for aspiring writers, who would like to master the art of the personal essay. I have used this book, both for my own writing and also for the university courses that I have taught. It also contains helpful chapters on writing beliefs, writing about relationships and writing about texts. My students have truly enjoyed this book for its variety, and its inspiring philosophies on writing by Joan Didion, Scott Sanders, Nancy Mairs and Annie Dillard. A thoughtful choice.
