Book Reviews of Zen in the Art of Writing: Essays on Creativity
Book Review: Restoration
Summary: 4 Stars
Through these essays Bradbury restores an often distorted concept of writing and its role of personal, artistic expression. With vivid imagery as set forth in his essay on "feeding the Muse" and passion surging through his perspectives on the writing process - all writers (aspiring and pro alike) will find Bradbury's views to be a refreshing spray of acid on conventionalism. In other words - Bradbury's Zen is a perfect box cutting tool for thinking outside cardboard boundaries.
