| Summary |
"Orderly miscellany" is the author's term for this aggregation of reflections, essays, reviews, reportage, commentary, and observations on writing and fellow writers, life, and contemporary culture. The collection's three sections, Coasting, Posting, and Hosting, contain pieces that range from reflections on becoming a writer in the 1940s to assesments of such major writers and close colleagues as Norman Mailer, Saul Bellow, and Donald Justice to topical offerings from Stern's popular blog for the New Republic. -- p. [4] of cover. |
