AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'I have been brooding on the reports of the death of literary fiction. How can novels become newsworthy again? How can they get up there with the glitz, glamour and drama essential for our contemporary celebrity culture? Literary awards rate an occasional bit of coverage but, a few notable exceptions apart, generally lack the necessary scandal to achieve massive publicity.' (Introduction)

Essays about the shared experience of literature, the art and craft of writing, the pleasures of reading, the survival of five hundred years of print culture, together with reflections and suggestions on creative writing, on what to do, and how to do it, and on what I’ve done, and why I wrote this book and how I wrote that one, together with anecdotes from other writers’ experiences, from writers in person, and from the books they have written.'
