A guide to the art of personal writing, by the author of Fierce Attachments and The End of the Novel of Love
All narrative writing must pull from the raw material of life a tale that will shape experience, transform event, deliver a bit of wisdom. In a story or a novel the I who tells this tale can be, and often is, an unreliable narrator but in nonfiction the reader must always be persuaded that the narrator is speaking truth. How does one pull from one's own boring, agitated self the truth-speaker who will tell the story a personal narrative needs to tell? That is the question The Situation and the Story asks--and answers. Taking us on a reading tour of some of the best memoirs and essays of the past hundred years, Gornick traces the changing idea of self that has dominated the century, and demonstrates the enduring truth-speaker to be found in the work of writers as diverse as Edmund Gosse, Joan Didion, Oscar Wilde, James Baldwin, or Marguerite Duras. This book, which grew out of fifteen years teaching in MFA programs, is itself a model of the lucid inteligence that has made Gornick one of our most admired writers of ninfiction. In it, she teaches us to write by teaching us how to read: how to recognize truth when we hear it in the writing of others and in our own.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfect replacement wipers
Size: 26"+14"+10-1(PTB)
These are fantastic and fit my car perfectly. I was a little worried but they went on easily and were the perfect replacement. They fit against the glass and don't cause any smearing. I was thrilled to get them so quickly because we had another storm coming and these worked fantastically. I can see out of my windshield. If you're on the fence about these, go ahead and order, they work great.

Impressive performance at an impressive price
Size: 26"+17"+14BP(HOOK)
I had one damaged wiper, so I decided to replace all 3 on my Subaru Outback. I have read a lot of positive information regarding "silicone" wipers, so I settled on this complete kit as it was a good value for the price and received many positive reviews.
They come well packaged, yet I was concerned that the longest blade had to be bent significantly to fit in the odd shaped box. However, once installed, that blade straightened out and conformed snuggly to the contour of the windshield.
True to the claim, it does take about 30 seconds to install each blade (that is if you understand the diagram and attempt to do so correctly). I had no issues and each blade snapped securely in place. They appear to be well made and durable. The design is clean and they look good on my vehicle.
I've been using them for 2 months now and they work well. They clear the windshield without streaking or chatter. They seem to work as well as other types I have used. The ultimate test will be how long they last. So far, I am very pleased with my choice.

Easy Installation Wipers!
Size: 26"+19"+14BP(HOOK)
Just installed them on my Outback, simple straightforward install. The instructions were simple and they seem to fit well. These wipers were more compatible than the old ones, and the appearance look like they are original!
When I purchased these wipers I thought I had purchased the Rain-X wiper replacements, but they were not. These wipers seem to work when I used the windshield cleaner with the wipers. The windshield cleaning seems effortless and without any noise.
