It stands at the top as one of the two or three best of its kind. If it is flawed, I fear that Fiction 's shelf life will be limited by the less discerning, due to the many contemporary examples and comparisons Seidman uses to make his case. From its specific practical details to its broad artistic considerations, Fiction is an affirming, inspiring book that ought to be owned and read by every writer.
