The View From the Cheap Seats

Book Jacket for: The view from the cheap seats : selected nonfictionThe View from the Cheap Seats is a collection of Neil Gaiman’s non-fiction writing.  It ranges from the text of speeches he has given to introductions he has written for other books to commentary on trends in writing & the media. I found it quite fascinating… particularly for the parts where he writes about the influence other writers have had on him.  More than one of his essays has resulted in the addition of a title on my “planning to read” list.  

The book is quite long but it is well worth a perusal.  Give it a try.
