About this product

Product Information

Creative nonfiction, also known as narrative nonfiction, liberated journalism by inviting writers to dramatize, interpret, speculate, and even re-create their subjects. Lee Gutkind collects twenty-five essays that flourished on this new ground, all originally published in the journal he founded, Creative Nonfiction, now celebrating its tenth anniversary. Lauren Slater is a therapist in the institution where she was once a patient. John Edgar Wideman reacts passionately to the unjust murder of Emmett Till. Charles Simic tells of wild nights with Uncle Boris. John McPhee creates a rare, personal, album quilt. Terry Tempest Williams speaks on the decline of the prairie dog. Madison Smartt Bell invades Haiti. Many of the writers are crossing genres'rom poetry and fiction to nonfiction'ymbolic of Creative Nonfiction's scope and popularity. A cross section of the famous and those bound to become so, this collection is a riveting experience highlighting the expanding importance of this dramatic and exciting new genre.

Fast shipping. Item did arrive with a little damage on the spine (I included pictures). However, it was in a very thick cardboard mailer. I'm assuming that it was damaged during shipping. Not upset about it, especially considering that it cost at least half of what others are selling it for. I wasn't looking at this as a collectors item anyway. Just wanted it for myself. Would purchase from them again.

A great paperback copy of a book I needed for my classics collection! There is a minor bend in the back of the book, but it was most likely the shipping process and I don't tend to mind minor bends that don't effect reading. The cover will also look different than the picture the seller posted, but is still a very nice copy. This book came to me very fast (within 2 days), so I am very satisfied with the time it took to receive my order.

  • Great Product!

    I bought it for an English 305 class because it was required. Makes for a good read though, it's not like reading a textbook or anything.
