Synopsis
For courses in Creative Nonfiction Writing; also appropriate for Freshman Composition courses.
This text is an introduction to literary or creative nonfiction and to the art of writing fresh and original work. It defines the genre in clear terms, describes what makes it “literary” as opposed to “utilitarian,” and specifies what is and what is not honest writing. Illustrating the six basic types of literary nonfiction with one or more short essays and a chapter devoted to each, this text analyzes how they can be used to create the student's own approach.
