I both read the book and listened to the audiobook and theres some valid advice delivered in a straight forward way. Didn't wow me but worth a read ( ) Questo saggio nemmeno poi brevissimo vuole spiegare come si fa a scrivere bene in modo conciso. Soprattutto la prima sezione in realtà è per in massima parte un manuale di scrittura in generale, fatto bene; ma dovrebbe essere chiaro a tutti che per scrivere bene e conciso occorre comunque in prima battuta saper scrivere bene. Lo stile del libro è piacevole e leggero; i capitoli - questo sì - sono brevi e terminano tutti con alcuni esercizi che recuperano il materiale spiegato in precedenza e permettono al lettore di metterlo all'opera. In un mondo dove il tempo per leggere è sempre più ridotto, l'essere in grado di esprimersi in modo breve ed efficace è un'abilità che bisogna saper coltivare: io parto avvantaggiato da una mia laconicità innata, ma ho comunque imparato a saperla gestire. This book provides thoughtful guidance about how and why to write concisely. I enjoyed Clark's willingness to reference cereal boxes as much as Strunk & White - even more so his willingness to one up that classic advice. How to Write Short also provides lots of practical examples and exercises to try. I hate wordy writing, especially when it detracts from the heart of the matter. This book is an overview and manual for polishing expression. It is easy to read, well researched and presented, and is also good for a laugh. It has given me a greater understanding of nuance and the desire to pay closer attention to my writing. It has also given me respect for the versatility of English, something I've never considered. I have become enthused by the ideas behind why things are written as they are. I will never read with the same eyes again. Highly recommend, enlightenment awaits. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
America's most influential writing teacher offers an engaging and practical guide to effective short-form writing. In HOW TO WRITE SHORT, Roy Peter Clark turns his attention to the art of painting a thousand pictures with just a few words. Short forms of writing have always existed-from ship logs and telegrams to prayers and haikus. But in this ever-changing Internet age, short-form writing has become an essential skill. Clark covers how to write effective and powerful titles, headlines, essays, sales pitches, Tweets, letters, and even self-descriptions for online dating services. With examples from the long tradition of short-form writing in Western culture, HOW TO WRITE SHORT guides writers to crafting brilliant prose, even in 140 characters.
