Writing a Novel Book

WRITING A NOVEL is a sound, entertaining book, written by the author of ROOM AT THE TOP. Braine describes sample novels for beginners to study.

Braine concludes a novelist "...should be neutral and invisible...civilized and tolerant...possessing, above all, intellectual integrity. The writer doesn't have to inhabit a rarified moral or intellectual plane, but he must always be, no matter how imperfectly, the conscience of society."

The internationally known author of six novels, including the celebrated Room at the Top speaks out candidly on his craft, and shares with the reader his professional expertise and personal experiences. As entertaining as it is useful, Writing a Novel is a practical handbook as well as an insider's account of the art and craft of a successful and widely respected writer.
