Specificatii
The long-awaited guide to writing long-form nonfiction by the
legendary author and teacherDraft No. 4 is a master class on the
writer's craft. In a series of playful, expertly wrought essays,
John McPhee shares insights he has gathered over his career and has
refined while teaching at Princeton University, where he has
nurtured some of the most esteemed writers of recent decades.
McPhee offers definitive guidance in the decisions regarding
arrangement, diction, and tone that shape nonfiction pieces, and he
presents extracts from his work, subjecting them to wry scrutiny.
In one essay, he considers the delicate art of getting sources to
tell you what they might not otherwise reveal. In another, he
discusses how to use flashback to place a bear encounter in a
travel narrative, while observing that readers are not supposed to
notice the structure. It is meant to be about as visible as
someone's bones. The result is a vivid depiction of the writing
process, from reporting to drafting to revising--and revising, and
revising.Draft No. 4 is enriched by multiple diagrams and by
personal anecdotes and charming reflections on the life of a
writer. McPhee describes his enduring relationships with The New
Yorker and Farrar, Straus and Giroux, and recalls his early years
at Time magazine. Throughout, Draft No. 4 is enlivened by his keen
sense of writing as a way of being in the world.
