PLOT TWIST: A MEMOIR OF A WRITING LIFE (HB)

Plumbing memories from his suburban childhood and his early years trying to break into publishing, Coben tells his own story for the first time. Filled with useful tips and techniques on the creative process, he does away with the traditional categories of writing - characters, plot, setting - and looks at the process holistically. A masterclass on the act of being a writer, and everything that comes with it: the self-doubt, the hubris, the contradictions, the passion and dedication.
