β¦ Synopsis
The celebrated author of Fahrenheit 451 and The Martian Chronicles offers inspiration and insight on finding oneβs muse and channeling it onto the page. Β Acclaimed writer of novels and short stories as well as screen- and stage plays, Ray Bradbury has established himself as one of the most legendary voices in science fiction and fantasy. In Zen in the Art of Writing, he shares how his unbridled passion for creating worlds made him a master of the craft. Β Part memoir, part philosophical guide, the essays in this book teach the joy of writing. Rather than focusing on the mechanics of putting words together, Bradburyβs zen is found in the celebration of storytelling that drove him to write every day. Bringing together eleven essays and a series of poems written with his own unique style and fervor, Zen in the Art of Writing is a must read for all prospective writers and Bradbury fans. Β βBradbury lovers will find this a Bradbury feast.β βKirkus Reviews
