Soft cover. Zustand: As New. 1st Edition. First Graywolf Printing, 2016. 174pp. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. "In fifteen essays that challenge the notion that literary and genre fiction are mutually exclusive, Benjamin Percy turns to Cormac McCarthy, Ursula K. Le Guin, Stephen King, and others to discover how contemporary writers engage plot, character, dialogue, and suspense. THRILL ME is an urgent and entertaining book on craft that brims with Percy's distinctive blend of anecdotes and advice, all in the service of one dictum: thrill the reader." [publisher copy] "Who would not want to keep company with the muscular imagination of Benjamin Percy while he ransacks literature, film, and music for all the practices and strategies that compose strong story writing? In this wide-ranging collection of essays, he draws vivid and useful models from artists from Chekhov to Tarantino. The book is rich with examples--and Percy himself makes a stirring and committed coach."--Ron Carlson. "Drawing on heterogeneous examples from James Baldwin to Kelly Link, Percy shows us how to inject a story with human urgency and how to respect the 'potent, primitive forces' lunging inside our language. I love how this book also reads like a sly memoir, with the killer ratio of brilliant mind to generous heart. Warmly personal and deviously scholarly, THRILL ME is terrific."--Karen Russell. Pristine paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine. Quite presentable.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Bold new essays on how to craft a thrilling read--in any genre--from the bestselling author of The Dead LandsAnyone familiar with the meteoric rise of Benjamin Percy's career will surely have noticed a certain shift: After writing two short-story collections and a literary novel, he delivered the werewolf thriller Red Moon and the postapocalyptic epic The Dead Lands. Now, in his first book of nonfiction, Percy challenges the notion that literary and genre fiction are somehow mutually exclusive. The title essay is an ode to the kinds of books that make many readers fall in love with fiction: science fiction, fantasy, mysteries, horror, from J.R.R. Tolkien to Anne Rice, Ursula K. Le Guin to Stephen King. Percy's own academic experience banished many of these writers in the name of what is 'literary' and what is 'genre.' Then he discovered Michael Chabon, Aimee Bender, Cormac McCarthy, Margaret Atwood, and others who employ techniques of genre fiction while remaining literary writers. In fifteen essays on the craft of fiction, Percy looks to disparate sources such as Jaws, Blood Meridian, and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo to discover how contemporary writers engage issues of plot, suspense, momentum, and the speculative, as well as character, setting, and dialogue. An urgent and entertaining missive on craft, Thrill Me brims with Percy's distinctive blend of anecdotes, advice, and close reading, all in the service of one dictum: Thrill the reader.
