Description: "Nonfiction novels have usually been associated with the "new journalism" writers of the 1960s such as Tom Wolfe, Norman Mailer, and Truman Capote. Yet this form has long commanded a key position in the literary canon, as John Russell now reveals." "Reciprocities in the Nonfiction Novel contributes to ongoing explorations of literary forms and offers an inspiring perspective on the art of writing about real life."--BOOK JACKET.
