About this book

Ann Patchett reflects on writing, mortality and the difference between making a novel and composing an essay. Her collection begins with the fear of leaving imagined characters unfinished, then considers how shorter work sustained her during the pandemic. Personal experiences, including running a bookstore, provide material for essays that connect the writer's daily life with her craft.
