Product Information
" Truth Is the Arrow, Mercy Is the Bow is one of the best books on writing I've ever read. It's also the funniest by a country mile." --Richard Russo, author of the North Bath trilogy The long-awaited craft book from Steve Almond, based on three decades of writing, failing, and trying again. In Truth is the Arrow , Mercy is the Bow , Steve Almond shares the insights gleaned from three decades as a beloved teacher and mentor, and a considerably less-beloved literary rabble rouser. His tone is irreverent. His ideas are iconoclastic. And his approach is stubbornly, radically, empathic. The goal is to explode the well-meaning but misguided myths that hold us back from writing our deepest and most honest work, to awaken the joys of storytelling while also confronting how grueling the process can be. Truth features chapters on plot, character, and chronology, but travels far beyond the earnest aims of most creative writing books, with essays about humor, sex, obsession, and writer's block, as well as prompts to generate new work and a rollicking Frequently Asked Questions section. You'll never think about writing the same way again.

Reviews
"Always candid and humane, Almond's book will appeal to writers of all different skill levels seeking insights into the wondrous art of storytelling.... An engaging reading guidebook to the writing life." -- Kirkus " Truth Is the Arrow, Mercy Is the Bow is one of the best books on writing I've ever read. It's also the funniest by a country mile." --Richard Russo, author of the North Bath trilogy "Steve Almond has done something remarkable here; he has demystified the writer's tool kit without over simplifying the brave descent into mystery that is every writer's task. Truth Is the Arrow, Mercy Is the Bow is deeply edifying, funny, often moving, erudite, wonderfully wise, and downright inspiring. I highly recommend this soul-nourishing and helpful book!" --Andre Dubus III, author of Such Kindness " Truth Is the Arrow, Mercy Is the Bow is an insightful and delightful book about how we hone the craft and embolden the heart in order to write well. Clear, compelling, and rich with wisdom and humor, Steve Almond has written an essential and timeless book for writers." --Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild and Tiny Beautiful Things "Steve Almond is a master teacher, which is to say he is smart, humble and brave. Much more than just method and strategy, truth and mercy become, in these pages, instructions for meeting the world authentically, which makes for better writing, and a far more valuable life." --Pam Houston, author of Deep Creek: Finding Hope In The High Country " Truth Is the Arrow, Mercy Is the Bow is a hilarious book that will kick your writing to the next level. I salivated over it and underlined like a madwoman." --Maria Semple, author of Where'd You Go, Bernadette, " Truth Is the Arrow, Mercy Is the Bow is one of the best books on writing I've ever read.

I salivated over it and underlined like a madwoman." --Maria Semple, author of Where'd You Go, Bernadette, "Tempting as it must be to write a self-congratulatory craft book full of breezy expertise, this volume is a total reversal of that impulse. Rather than giving us polished gems of writerly wisdom devoid of context, Almond takes us with him to the proverbial mines. . . . Almond's vulnerability makes this book a useful companion for writers on difficult journeys of their own. . . . This isn't . . . just a book about writing. It's a book about honesty: what makes it elusive, the risks it implies, and not just how to pursue it, but also why." --The Boston Globe " [A] helpful supplement to any writer's practice, be they a novice or a seasoned vet. . . . His prose has the cozy formality of a writers' workshop , and he delivers a treasure trove of examples from literature to prove each point. He emphasizes the roles of humor and doubt and advises on how to write authentic intimacy, break the cycle of writer's block, and move beyond entitlement and into wisdom." -- Booklist "Always candid and humane, Almond's book will appeal to writers of all different skill levels seeking insights into the wondrous art of storytelling.... An engaging reading guidebook to the writing life." -- Kirkus "Hilarious, heartfelt, and hopeful." -- Star Tribune " Truth Is the Arrow, Mercy Is the Bow is one of the best books on writing I've ever read.

Very fast shipping, slightly scuffed cover so that was a little sad but it was marked as "very good" not "new" so that's to be expected. Excited to read. :)
