The Cambridge Companion to Prose, Paperback / softback Book

The Cambridge Companion to Prose Paperback / softback

Edited by Daniel (University of Cambridge) Tyler

Part of the Cambridge Companions to Literature series

Paperback / softback

Description

This Companion provides an introduction to the craft of prose.

It considers the technical aspects of style that contribute to the art of prose, examining the constituent parts of prose through a widening lens, from the smallest details of punctuation and wording to style more broadly conceived.

The book is concerned not only with prose fiction but with creative non-fiction, a growing area of interest for readers and aspiring writers.

Written by internationally-renowned critics, novelists and biographers, the essays provide readers and writers with ways of understanding the workings of prose.

They are exemplary of good critical practice, pleasurable reading for their own sake, and both informative and inspirational for practising writers.

The Cambridge Companion to Prose will serve as a key resource for students of English literature and of creative writing.
