Pormenores da obraLiving by Fiction por Annie Dillard (1982)
   Nenhum(a) Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. NA  pszolovits | Feb 3, 2021 |  Annie's literary criticism did not engage me in a significant way. Her insights here, while certainly keen, feel a little dated now, given that we are now living in a post-postmodern literary world. That said, I did not finish the book, so it's possible I missed out on something good later on. Regardless, she still remains one of my all-time favorites. (  ) S.D. | May 10, 2014 | Sigh. I loved this book. Dillard always hits the mark. I could read this one again and again. (  ) lnlamb | Mar 4, 2009 | sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
Living by Fiction is written for--and dedicated to--people who love literature. Dealing with writers such as Nabokov, Barth, Coover, Pynchon, Borges, García Márquez, Beckett, and Calvino, Annie Dillard shows why fiction matters and how it can reveal more of the modern world and modern thinking than all the academic sciences combined. Like Joyce Cary's Art and Reality, this is a book by a writer on the issues raised by the art of literature. Readers of Pilgrim at Tinker Creek and Holy the Firm will recognize Dillard's vivid writing, her humor, and the lively way in which she tackles the urgent questions of meaning in experience itself.
