Recenzii
“What drives the work of 'minor' writers like herself (and the rest of us), those who have little hope of becoming 'authors' in the Foucauldian [cultural discourse-shifting] sense? Her response comes in a series of strikingly well-crafted essays, at once erudite and personal, that look into reasons for writing other than influence or acclaim.”—College Composition and Communication
“[Author Gail Gilliland] discusses major issues in this examination of the role of the lesser-known writer in today's society. Being a Minor Writer will interest anyone who has ever struggled with that 'raid on the inarticulate' called writing…Learned, impassioned, filled with high moral purpose.”—Wilson Library Bulletin
