Clear and Simple as the Truth:
Writing Classic Prose
Francis-Noël Thomas & Mark Turner

Book Description | Table of Contents

ADDITIONAL ENDORSEMENTS:

"The authors give one of the best discussions of style that I have ever read. Thomas and Turner juxtapose conventionally thought of as disparate, and thereby suggest possible new avenues of interpretation for critics of individual authors. Clear and Simple as the Truth occupies a niche of its own, as a kind of hybrid between books on writing such as The Elements of Style and The Reader over Your Shoulder, and more theoretical studies of representation, such as Mimesis."--Richard Preston, author of American Steel
