- Description
In a critical review of fiction as a mirror tinted by the perspective of an author, Michael Crummey launches a short but deep dive into what exactly fiction is in relation to reality. Most of What Follows is True is a short essay about writing and the relationship (or responsibilities) of any author to the place they are writing about. Using examples from his own experiences, Crummey showcases how the trueness of the characters and places in fictional writing can make or break the author’s relationship with the reader, and the need to balance authenticity with reader enjoyment. In an accessibly written and engaging personal narrative, Crummey’s notions of literature, reality, and fiction would make for excellent discussions with students.
