It's what the title says it is, a manifesto. This book seems to be written to help budding scavengers feel less icky about rooting through castoffs. Overall, there is very little practical info provided. (less)

This was a bit of a snooze, so I didn't get very far into the story. I had picked this up hoping it would be a quick read. No big deal, though. There are plenty other Georges Simenon books to choose from.(less)

I had written notes regarding my thoughts about this book, but they didn't make the jump from analogue to digital form until now. Amy Hempel's short story collections are contained in this volume. People tend to call Hempel's style minimalist, but she considers her style miniaturist. Indeed, some of them are very short, well under a paragraph long. The stories are poignant and humorous glimpses into the lives of her characters, and largely anecdotal. There isn't much in the way of plot or character development, but it's remarkable how much she can convey in few words. Hempel's style is detached. I normally don't mind, but I got a little weary of it for a while. I think it's best to read this book at a leisurely pace, because there isn't much variation in Hempel's style. The copy I read is from the library, so I decided to return it after reading 3/4 of the book. (less)

Of all books I have read about writing, this one is the most accessible and useful. It's a practical guide on how to be clear and concise in nonfiction writing. William Zinsser's tone is conversational and his sense of humor made me chuckle. (less)
