Inventing the Truth: The Art and Craft of Memoir edited by William Zinsser

The events, memories, and emotions of the past often resist the orderly structure of a book. Inventing the Truth offers wisdom from nine notable memoirists about their process (Ian Frazier searched through generations of family papers to understand his parents' lives), the hurdles they faced (Annie Dillard tackles the central dilemma of memoir: what to put in and what to leave out), and the unexpected joys of bringing their pasts to the page.

Used softcover, minor wear, binding tight, pages lightly tanning, a very nice copy!
