The Reader Over Your Shoulder (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Seven Stories Press,U.S., New York, 2018
ISBN 10: 1609807332 ISBN 13: 9781609807337
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Back in print, an indispensable resource for writers of English prose from Robert Graves.First published in 1947, The Reader Over Your Shoulder remains required reading for anyone who wants to write more clearly and artfully. Editor Alan Hodge and I, Claudius author Robert Graves enjoin the writer to write as if "a crowd of his prospective readers. were looking over his shoulder," anticipating possible questions and criticism. They identify the most common blunders writers make and lay out forty-one principles-twenty-five dealing with clarity of statement, sixteen with grace of expression-while showing us how to avoid them. Their insights are as fresh and their examples as entertaining seventy years later as they address such topics as "The Use and Abuse of Official English" and "Where Is Good English to Be Found?" In print again for the first time in decades, this lost gem is sure to take its rightful place alongside The Chicago Manual of Style and Strunk and White's Elements of Style as an indispensable resource for writers of English prose. An indispensable guide for writers of English prose from Robert Graves. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
