Short Takes: Brief Encounters with Contemporary Nonfiction
ISBN: 9780393326000 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In the years since the perennially popular In Short and In Brief were published, readers have come to delight in the deft focus of the succinct piece we now call The Short. Extending this trend, Short Takes presents over seventy-five writers whose range and style demonstrate the myriad ways we humans have of telling our truths. Themes develop and speak to or collide with one another: musings about parents, childhood, sports, weather, war, solitude, nature, loss and, of course, love. The stellar roster of contributors includes well-known writers Verlyn Klinkenborg, Jo Ann Beard, David Sedaris,...

ISBN: 9780393319071 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In their previous collection Judith Kitchen and Mary Paumier Jones coined the term "short" for those creative nonfiction pieces literary rather than informational, and characteristically short that are attracting our finest writers.
