Beschrijving

In the third edition of On Writing Fiction, Jackson discusses points of view, the passage of time, plot & movement, dialog, character development, setting the scene, symbol & allusion, theme & style, artistic growth (and stagnation), autobiographicism, and art’s higher purpose.

New to this edition is discussion of the treatment of sex and love in fiction, and personal and professional insight on the myths, lies, and potential pitfalls of an author’s life.
