Synopsis
First published in 1987, "Inventing the Truth" quickly grew into the best-selling compendium of the Writer's Craft series and continues to be a lasting hit. In this revised and expanded edition with a new introduction by its editor, William Zinsser, the voices of original contributors--Russell Baker, Annie Dillard, Alfred Kazin, and Toni Morrison--join new pieces by Jill Ker Conway, Eileen Simpson, and Henry Louis Gates, Jr., among others. The result is a provocative dialogue that vividly examines the expanding and innovative approaches to a literary form practiced by some of our most prestigious authors.

Industry Reviews
"An admirable idea for a book, filled with admirable ideas. It both salvages individual precious gems . . . and also brings us closer to the work of the memoirists themselves."
