    Fast ship, well packed, just as described, excellent transaction! Would definitely buy from this seller again. The book itself is a classic favorite of mine but I was dismayed to see Purple House Press had "slightly revised" it. I looked this up on their website and learned in FAQs, they CENSOR the classics, "it means we’ve replaced some words which are considered divisive at this time or whose meaning has changed over the years." They don't keep a list edits, so it could be anything.

    Great seller. Quick to ship and received in a well packaged envelope. Arrived “new” by the sellers description. Great price, great shipping costs. Would buy from this seller again.

    Five-star transaction. Quality item, exactly as described, shipped quickly. Although this book was available from other Sellers, I purchased from this Seller mainly due to feedback. Saw some bad reviews for some other Sellers and felt most confident with this Seller. My confidence was rewarded with a very pleasant, professional transaction at a competitive price.

  • A Must for Any Writer

    This is the third time I bought this book. James Michener here describes how a book is written and edited. He shares how writers deal with book agents, how the latter handles the business. Michener describes how writers can upgrade their skills. He describes the kind of writers who succeed and who fail despite great talent. He also describes how publishing companies struggle, enjoy when a book is received very well. It describes how hard and diligently houses work. Given these facts, THE NOVEL is a timeless book for any writer and lover of good books.
