  • "For two decades, essayist John D'Agata has been exploring the contours of the essay through a series of innovative, informative, and expansive anthologies that have become foundational texts in the study of the genre. The breakthrough first volume, "The Next American Essay, " highlighted major work from 1974 to 2003, while the second, "The Lost Origins of the Essay," showcased the essay's ancient and international forebears. Now, with "The Making of the American Essay," D'Agata concludes his monumental tour of this inexhaustible form, with selections ranging from Anne Bradstreet's secular prayers to Washington Irving's satires, Emily Dickinson's love letters to Kenneth Goldsmith's catalogues, Gertrude Stein's portraits to James Baldwin's and Norman Mailer's meditations on boxing."--Provided by publisher.
