This is a treasure for the serious writer by a novelist who could only indulge his love of learning on Fridays. It contains how-to articles about creative writing beginning with "Can it Be Taught?" with citations from "Khakheperresemb , a postmodernist of the Middle Kingdom of Egypt" and progresses through essays and lectures to chaos theory, Mandelbrot and "The Novel in the 21st Century." It keeps your attention for more than 350 pages and ends with an excellent index.
