Francine Prose takes your students on a guided tour of the tools and the tricks of the masters—Dostoevsky, Flaubert, Kafka, Austen, Joyce, Woolf, Chekhov—and discovers why these writers endure. Throughout READING LIKE A WRITER, she cautions students to slow down and pay attention to words, the raw material out of which literature is crafted.
The 28-page P.S. contains an author biography and READING AND WRITING: A CONVERSATION WITH FRANCINE PROSE—an extensive interview by Jessica Murphy—that first appeared in THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY online.
