The Abundance: Narrative Essays Old and New by Annie Dillard

4.0

The Abundance is a collection of Annie Dillard's essays that have been previously published in other volumes - it's an ideal starting point for someone new to her work. She has a poet's touch and eye, and her writing is wonderful to read, it always gives me a new perspective on life and makes me think more deeply about the world. Her words on the creative life and the craft of writing are particularly resonant and enjoyable to read.
