Description du livre Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Earnest, amusing, and contemplative.though Beattie is known for her fiction, her nonfiction has just as much to offer.Publishers WeeklyShimmering prose and critical acumen on display in an eclectic collection.Kirkus ReviewsAs deeply rewarding as her fiction, a selection of Ann Beatties essays, chosen and introduced by the author. From appreciations of writers, photographers, and other artists, to notes on the craft of writing itself, this is a wide-ranging, and always penetrating collection of writing never before published in book form.Ann Beattie, a master storyteller, has been delighting readers since the publication of her short stories in the 1970s and her first novel, Chilly Scenes of Winter. But as her literary acclaim grew and she was hailed the voice of her generation, Ms. Beattie was also moonlighting as a nonfiction writer. As she writes in her introduction to this collection, Nonfiction always gave me a thrill, even if it provided only an illusion of freedom. Freedom and flexibilityfor me, those are the conditions under which imagination sparks.These penetrating essays are stories unto themselves, closely observed appreciations of life and art. The reader travels with Ms. Beattie to Cedar Rapids, Iowa to learn about the legacy of the painter, Grant Wood, and his iconic painting American Gothic; to the famed University of Virginia campus with her husband, the painter Lincoln Perry; to Key West, Florida for New Years with writer and translator, Harry Mathews; to a roadside near Boston in a broken-down car with the wheelchair-bound writer Andre Dubus.There are explorations of novels, short stories, paintings, and photographs by artists ranging from Alice Munro to Elmore Leonard, from Sally Mann to John Loengard. Whatever the subject, Ms. Beattie brings penetrating insight into literature and art thats both familiar and unfamiliaras she writes, This, I think, is what artists want to do: find a way to lure the reader or viewer into an alternate realm, to overcome the audiences resistance to being taken away from their own lives and interests and priorities.Ann Beatties nonfiction (originally published in Life, The New Yorker, The New York Times, and The American Scholar, among others) is a new way to enjoy one of the great writers of her generation. Readers will find much to love in this journey with a curious and fascinating mind.More to Say is part of Godines Nonpareil series: celebrating the joy of discovery with books bound to be classics.
