Hardback. Etat : Good. A vibrant history of the renowned and often controversial Iowa Writers? Workshop and its celebrated alumni and faculty   As the world?s preeminent creative writing program, the Iowa Writers? Workshop has produced an astonishing number of distinguished writers and poets since its establishment in 1936. Its alumni and faculty include twenty-eight Pulitzer Prize winners, six U.S. poet laureates, and numerous National Book Award winners. This volume follows the program from its rise to prominence in the early 1940s under director Paul Engle, who promoted the ?workshop? method of classroom peer criticism.   Meant to simulate the rigors of editorial and critical scrutiny in the publishing industry, this educational style created an environment of both competition and community, cooperation and rivalry.

Boyle, and Marilynne Robinson?David Dowling examines how the Iowa Writers? Workshop has shaped professional authorship, publishing industries, and the course of American literature.…
