Greene, Robert Lane2023
Book
Why are the best words short and old? Why are full stops a writer's best friend? How can we simplify, then exaggerate? And what exactly are dangling modifiers? We'd all like to write with style. But what does that mean, and what can we learn from The Economist, a publication well known for its clarity and flair? Welcome to 'Writing with Style', an elegant survey of the principles available for writing better prose.
