The Art of Friction: Where (Non)Fictions Come Together by Charles Blackstone, Jill Talbot

3.0

This anthology explores the territory between non-fiction and fiction, including short stories and autobiographical essays and mixes of the the two. As someone who likes non-fiction to be factual, I wasn't so sure about this concept, but the author commentary on each piece helped out greatly in shining a light on what was true (as the author saw it) and what was fictionalized. A couple commentaries did stray too far into high falutin' academic analysis for my taste, so I skimmed those.
