The Sound on the Page: Great Writers Talk about Style and Voice in Writing

The acclaimed author examines the importance of a writer's voice—including interviews with Susan Orlean, Michel Chabon, Junot Díaz and others.

In writing, style matters. Our favorite writers often entertain, move, and inspire us less by what they say than by how they say it. In The Sound on the Page, acclaimed author, teacher, and critic Ben Yagoda offers practical and incisive help for writers on developing and discovering their own style and voice.

This wonderfully rich and readable book features interviews with more than 40 of our most important authors discussing their literary style, including:
