The Graywolf Annual Three: Essays, Memoirs and Reflections (No.3)

The Graywolf Annual Three: Essays, Memoirs & Reflections

The third Graywolf Annual celebrates the personal essay in its many forms: intimate family memoir, personal political reportage, literary memoir, and writing on science, nature, religion, and art. Many contemporary writers have turned to the personal essay or memoir as a fitting way to tell a more directly personal sort of truth than is possible for them in their fiction or poetry. The Graywolf Annual Three celebrates this renaissance of interest in the personal essay by presenting new work by fourteen outstanding contemporary writers.
