The Art of Time in Fiction: As Long as It Takes by Joan Silber

5.0

Silber delivers a concise analysis of the variety of ways storytellers employ time to create narrative shapes and effects. She explores stories to tease out how authors effectively dealt with classic (natural), long, switchback, slowed, and fabulous time. This slim volume should be in every writer's and every serious reader's collection.
