Making a Novel

by GÃrard Gavarry, Jane Kuntz (Translator)

Overview

Moving back and forth between detailed explanation and personal anecdotes, Gérard Gavarry's Making a Novel is partly a memoir of a writer's life and partly a memoir of his work, showing us how every story, no matter how well-planned, could always have been written countless other ways.
