Drawing on syllabi for Joyce Carol Oates’s own writing seminar at Princeton University, Telling Stories gathers over one hundred works of narrative art―"miniature" narratives, dramatic monologues, early stories by well-known writers, prose pieces inspired by myth, legend, and folktale, poems that tell stories, memoir and diary excerpts, two examples of genre fiction, and a generous sampling of classic and contemporary short stories―selected to stimulate and inspire beginning writers as they practice and perfect their craft.
Oates’s chapter introductions and afterword on the writing workshop offer students encouragement, advice, and exercises for honing their skills."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
