Writing of Fiction
by Edith Wharton
Join Edith Wharton, a masterful author in her own right, as she delves into the intricacies of crafting short stories and novels. In this insightful exploration, she shares practical advice for aspiring writers, drawing on the wisdom of Arthur Quiller-Couch. Wharton offers a refreshing approach, favoring a list of scenes over traditional outlines, and presents the overarching structure of a novel like a step-by-step recipe. While some might label it a How-To guide, its much more—a treasure trove of inspiration. The final chapter on Proust may seem a bit unconventional, as it doesnt fully connect with the preceding insights, but it adds an intriguing layer to her narrative. (Summary by William Jones) Proof-listeners were Rita Boutros, Michele Eaton, & TriciaG
