Description
George Saunders guides the reader through seven classic Russian short stories he's been teaching for twenty years as a professor in a prestigious graduate creative writing program. Saunders approaches each of these stories technically yet accessibly, and through them explains how narrative functions; why we stay immersed in a story and why we resist it; and the bedrock virtues a writer must foster.
