Anyone still asking, "What is creative nonfiction?" will find the
answer in this collection of artfully crafted, true stories.
Selected by Lee Gutkind, the "godfather behind creative
nonfiction," and the staff of Creative Nonfiction, these
stories-ranging from immersion journalism to intensely personal
essays-illustrate the genre's power and potential. Edwidge Danticat
recalls her Uncle Moise's love of a certain four-letter word and
finds in his abandonment of the word near the end of his life the
true meaning of exile. In "Literary Murder," Julianna Baggott
traces her roots as a novelist to her family's "strange, desperate
(sometimes conniving and glorious) past" and writes about her
decision, in The Madam, to kill off a character based on her
grandfather. And Sean Rowe explains why, if you must get arrested,
Selma, Alabama, is the place to do it. This exciting and expansive
array of works and voices is sure to impress and delight.
