Description
This anthology and guide celebrates the formal and intellectual inventiveness of creative criticism, showcasing works that demonstrate a deep fidelity to the writing or art they address.
Featuring pieces by prominent critics such as Anne Carson, Jacques Derrida, Geoff Dyer, Hélène Cixous, Ali Smith, John Cage, and others, this collection provides a unique perspective on how to write critically and creatively. The 14 included texts respond innovatively to the question: How do we write criticism?
Written by Stephen Benson and Clare Connors, both teaching at the University of East Anglia's School of Literature, Drama and Creative Writing, this anthology is an essential resource for students, teachers, and critics of literature and creative writing.
