With increased compression, every word, every sentence matters
more. A writer must learn how to form narratives around caesuras
and crevices instead of strings of connections, to move a story
through the symbolic weight of images, to master the power of
suggestion. With elegant prose, deep readings of other writers, and
scaffolded writing exercises, The Art of Brevity takes the reader
on a lyrical exploration of compact storytelling, guiding readers
to heighten their awareness of not only what appears on the page
but also what doesn't.
