Description
The Art of Subtext: Beyond Plot by Charles Baxter Fiction writer and essayist Charles Baxter explores the hidden subtextual overtones and undertones in fictional works, revealing how writers create those visible and invisible details that evoke what is not displayed. Using examples from a range of authors, Baxter examines the role of subtext in shaping the meaning of a text. Baxter's book is part of The Art of series, a new line of books on the craft of writing that aims to restore the art of criticism while illuminating the art of writing. By shedding light on the often-neglected issue of subtext, Baxter provides a valuable insight into the writing process and the ways in which writers can use subtext to add depth and complexity to their work.
