Review:
"[A] profound exploration of the value of storytelling....Barth pulls off an extended and moving epiphany about writing, living, breathing in the face of the ultimate terrorist: death and its long shadow."
Michael Agger, New York Times Book Review, 04/04/2004
Review:"[A]fter many years, Barth's career, and postmodernism, seem both to be gradually drawing to a close. Nevertheless, the exploration of the aftermath of 9/11 and the continued experiments with fictional form in THE BOOK OF TEN NIGHTS AND A NIGHT show that this latest instalment of Barth's last words are still relevant and still worth reading."
Stephen Burn, Times Literary Supplement, 03/11/2005

The Book of Ten Nights and a Night: Eleven Stories (Paperback) (ISBN: 9780618562084) Barth, John Quantity Available: 10
Book Description: Mariner Books, United States, 2005. Paperback. Book Condition: New. Reprint. 213 x 160 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery ***** Print on Demand *****. The Book of Ten Nights and a Night offers both a keen introduction to the genius of John Barth and a deeply human argument for the enduring value of literature. Gathering stories written throughout this postmodern master's long career, the collection spans his entire range of styles, from straightforward narrative to experimental metafiction. In the time immediately following September 11, 2001, the veteran writer Graybard spends eleven nights with a nubile muse named WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get). The two lovers debate the meaning and relevance of writing and storytelling in the wake of disaster, telling a new tale each night in the tradition of Scheherazade. The Book of Ten Nights and a Night exhibits the thrilling blend of playfulness and illuminating insight that have marked Barth as one of America's most distinguished writers.
