Betwixt-And-Between: Essays on the Writing Life

By Jenny Boully

Book Overview

Essays on writing, moving among digression, reflection, imagination, and experience as a lover might, bringing art into the world.

Boully's essays are ripe with romance and sensual pleasures, drawing connections between the digression, reflection, imagination, and experience that characterize falling in love as well as the art of arranging words on a page. Literary theory, philosophy, and linguistics rub up against memory, dreamscapes, and fancy, making the practice of writing a metaphor for the illusory nature of experience.
