Writers on Writing: More Collected Essays from the New York Times
In a second volume of original essays drawn from the long-running "New York Times" column, another group of contemporary literature's finest voices muse on the challenges and gifts of language and creativity. Contributors include Elmore Leonard, Arthur Miller, Amy Tan and Edmund White.
The pieces range from taciturn, hilarious advice for aspiring writers to thoughtful, soul-wrenching reflections on writing in the midst of national tragedy. William Kennedy talks about the intersecting lives of real and imagined Albany politics; Susan Isaacs reveals her nostalgia for a long-retired protagonist; and Elmore Leonard offers pithy rules for letting the writing, and not the writer, take charge. With contributions from Diane Ackerman, Margaret Atwood, Frank Conroy, Mary Karr, Patrick McGrath, Arthur Miller, Amy Tan, and Edmund White, Writers on Writing, Volume II offers an uncommon and revealing view of the writer's world.
