A Reader for Writers: A Critical Anthology of Prose Readings: Well, as the title suggests, this book is meant to be read by the readers who are the writers of tomorrow. By writers, it doesn’t mean that only commercial title suits it – a writer can be anyone writing for his or her academic as well as personal needs. And this book will help one perfect the art of writing. It has different sections and each section has some essays which elaborate the section heading and serve as examples. For example, you will find pieces under the sections Personal Narrative, Style, Exposition, Narration, Description etc. Once you read those pieces, you will understand ‘how’ to manage ‘what’ very easily. Yes, the book is rather old and it doesn’t meet the eyes of the readers any easily. However, you can get the book from Amazon store. We have the link which works for the international readers as well as Indian readers:
