Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. First Plume Printing, December 1990, 4th printing. 155pp w/Selected Bibliography. Bright, clean & tight copy, gently read, in Near Fine condition. "ZEN TO GO serves up bite-sized bits of wisdom from the East and from the West, from such intuitive Zen masters as Henry Miller, Albert Einstein, Joa…n Didion, John Cage, Lao Tzu, and O.J. Simpson. The essence of Zen is conveyed through an eclectic mix of short passages on topics ranging from the nature of Zen itself to pithy pondering on Life, Death, Art, Nature, Reality, Time, and Nothingness. The Zen here is not confined to the East or to those who can twist themselves into the lotus position; rather it is open to anyone--as valid from the lips of athletes and artists as in the writings of sages and holy men. It is a Zen as witty as it is wise, full of airy humor and weighty insight. You can quote it; you can contemplate it; you can embrace it. Or you can ignore it, for, as Gertrude Stein wrote, 'There is no answer. There isn't going to be any answer. There never has been an answer. That's the answer.'" [publisher copy] "Delightful and juicy reading."--Charles Bukowski. Near pristine & handy paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine & no markings.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. First Edition, 1st printing. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. "Here from more than four hundred of the world's most celebrated writers and booksmiths--from T. S. Eliot and Eudora Welty to Cynthia Ozick and P. J. O'Rourke--is a treas…ury of useful advice on the world and work of writing. Compiled by the author of the best-selling Portable Curmudgeon, ADVICE TO WRITERS includes priceless counsel on subjects ranging from writer's block and writing dialogue to dealing with agents and editors and appearing on television; from work habits and procrastination rituals to drinking on the job; from success, money, and fame to the lack of one or all of them. [] Flaubert, Twain, and Kipling impart their venerable wisdom. Red Smith tells us that 'writing is easy. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and open a vein.' Annie Dillard, David Guterson, and Maureen Dowd offer practical suggestions. David Remnick describes the ideal editor. A genre's-eye view comes from science-fiction master Harlan Ellison and sportswriter Dick Schaap. Provocative insights come from David Mamet, Russell Banks, and Joyce Carol Oates. [] Clever and sagacious, pragmatic and heartening, this is an essential volume for both the aspiring writer and the devoted reader." [jacket copy] "Novices looking for practical information on the nuts and bolts of the business may not find it here. On the other hand, advice from the likes of David Remnick, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Toni Morrison, Maxwell Perkins, Isaac Asimov, Samuel Johnson, Calvin Trillin, P.D. James, and many, many other professional scribes can serve to inspire. At the very least, this potpourri of words to the wise will keep the incipient writer amused between drafts."--Alix Wilber. "Best advice on writing I've ever received: Finish."--Peter Mayle. Pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in a handsome, intact jacket. Quite presentable.
