by Eli Goldblatt (Author)
This collection of essays by an award winning scholar and poet will appeal to readers from many areas of English, with particular appeal to grad students preparing to teach writing courses.
"As an admirer of Eli Goldblatt's original, groundbreaking, and beautifully crafted written work in composition, I think this focused book of his collected essays will be extremely compelling reading for people in this field."
-Russel Durst, Professor, University of Cincinnati
"Goldblatt's perspective, his embeddedness in his place, community, and culture, and his range of topical interests is truly unique. He is a teacher, poet, essayist, activist, literacy scholar, and publisher of great importance. I don't know anyone else whose work can simultaneously occupy so many vantage points so deeply and well."
-Paula Mathieu, Associate Professor, Boston College
