Lovers of writing, here is a new kind of book for anyone who enjoys putting words to paper or display ... In 1971 when this author was a cub inkslinger living in Aspen for the summer, Saul Bellow, also living there, read some of his writing, and advised him to learn the writer's trade.The cub took the future Nobel Prize winner's advice to heart. So much so that now you too can reap the benefits of his advice, in the form of this entertaining book, a literary tool box that contains the tools of the writer's trade. Each of its fifty short chapters describes one of these literary tools, exemplifies its use with a passage by a usually famous author, and reveals the literary script by which anyone, including you, can create each tool and use it to enrich your own writing -whether you are penning a short article for a local newspaper or a thick book that someday could win you a Pulitzer Prize. This book is also beautifully written and beautifully designed, and its Table of Contents on pages 10-11 lists the tools it contains for your entertainment, use, and profit.
