| Summary |
"In this book, creative writers at every stage of their endeavours are offered clear and practical guidance on making the most of those strange dots and lines and curves that we call punctuation." "Drawing on his extensive experience in the world of literary publishing, Noah Lukeman encourages would-be writers to harness the enormous potential that lies in the creative use of punctuation. He argues that a fresh approach to punctuation will open up a world of possibilities, whether in writing a new work or revising an old one, and he demonstrates this through numerous examples from established writers past and present. And in order to convert theory into practice, The Art of Punctuation includes a range of written exercises at the end of every chapter."--BOOK JACKET |
