Reseña del editor:
How negotiable is a fact in nonfiction? In 2003, an essay by John D Agata was rejected by the magazine that commissioned it due to factual inaccuracies. That essay which eventually became the foundation of D Agata s critically acclaimed About a Mountain was accepted by another magazine, The Believer, but not before they handed it to their own fact-checker, Jim Fingal. What resulted from that assignment was seven years of arguments, negotiations, and revisions as D Agata and Fingal struggled to navigate the boundaries of literary nonfiction. This book reproduces D Agata s essay, along with D Agata and Fingal s extensive correspondence. What emerges is a brilliant and eye-opening meditation on the relationship between truth and accuracy and a penetrating conversation about whether it is appropriate for a writer to substitute one for the other."

Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. How negotiable is a fact? In 2003, after publishing his book of experimental essays, Halls of Fame, John DAgata was approached by Harpers magazine to write an essay for them, one that was eventually rejected due to disagreements related to its fact checking. That essay which eventually became the foundation of DAgatas critically acclaimed About a Mountain was accepted by another magazine, the Believer, but not before they handed it to their own fact-checker, Jim Fingal. What resulted from that assignment, and beyond the essays eventual publication in the magazine, was seven years of arguments, negotiations, and revisions as DAgata and Fingal struggled to navigate the boundaries of literary nonfiction. This book includes an early draft of DAgatas essay, along with DAgata and Fingals extensive discussion around the text. What emerges is a brilliant and eye-opening meditation on the relationship between truth and accuracy and a penetrating conversation about whether it is appropriate for a writer to substitute one for the other. Now a Broadway Play. An innovative essayist and his fact-checker do battle about the use of truth and the definition of nonfiction.
