To Show and to Tell: The Craft of Literary Nonfiction by Phillip Lopate Book Review

Name: S
Rating: 3.0 out of 5 stars
Title: .0 out of 5 stars I wouldn’t recommend it.
Date: Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 24, 2017
Review: I didn’t like Phillip Lopate’s To Show and to Tell, and I will tell you why. Phillip seems to be very much stuck on this idea that he’s a “middle aged author”, which is his endearing term for the self imposed limitations of his perceptions and reflections. This book is some kind of a winding tale, where Phillip takes us through some of his strong opinions on various famous writers, coming to the defense of some of his favorite old white ones. I’m a young person, so maybe I am extra sensitive to this. But a large portion of this book feels like an unsolicited defense of some of the most famous essayists of all time. I felt like one of the elderly resident’s in my building stopped me without provocation to expound about how great the beetles were. Like dude, I get it man.
I don’t know what or who he is responding to, maybe he’s picking up on some kind general Millennial fatigue that these old long dead writers evoke. Or maybe when he talks about them with his MFA students he doesn’t find they get the respect he believes they deserve. Hell, maybe he just feels an urgent end of the life need to expound about the value of reading Emerson. I did not buy this book with the expectation that Emerson was going to be suggested to me at length, nor Hoagland, or Charles Lamb, I bought it in the hopes of learning about non fiction writing. Maybe I am just beyond help and irreverent, I mean who am I to question the insights of a writing professor at Columbia.
But speaking of insights? Where were they? I poured through this book quickly over a few days, so maybe it’s filled with subtle nuance that I missed. But with each chapter that I started, I was expecting the subject of the chapter to be addressed and taken seriously, and explored in depth, and that at some point I was going to encounter some kernel of wisdom that Phillip had gained after practicing the craft for so many decades. That is not what I found, because with chapters labeled “How do I end an essay” or “On the Necessity of Turning Oneself into a Character” or “The Lyric Essay”. I found that Phillip would dance around the subject at hand, spinning further and further away from a central point, something a reader could take away and apply, and as he spun further and further away from something useful, his attempt to use self awareness to justify the lack of insight into his field grew louder and louder.
I was really unimpressed, although Phillip is an undeniably good writer, often enjoyable and humorous and basically likable, I can’t fault him for his blindspots. But after reading this book to completion, I felt tricked and a little angry. Like a fast one had been pulled on me by my writing teacher who required us to read this book for class, or better yet a fast one had been pulled on me by Phillip who at the beginning of this book didn’t warn me he considers himself to be the old guard who’s responsibility it is to make sure his young students and you the reader, understand that while James Baldwin is an exciting writer he’s flawed and imperfect. Once more, old dude, I totally get it. Phillip’s obsession with his age and cube like self perception of who he is, really prevented a lot of what this book offered from reaching me, me the young irreverent millennial who wants to learn how to write really good stuff. I’d hope Phillip would be a little more considerate in his teaching than this obvious plea to not let his favorite writers die in obscurity while marketing it as a nuts and bolts guide to writing nonfiction.
So why did I rate this three stars if I think Phillip Lopate comes across as out of touch?Because I still got a lot out of this book, even though I didn’t find Phillip to be filled with either useful insight or inspiring direction. His tales of cheeky failure trying to connect with his students and his desire and attempts to demystify writing were in fact very helpful and made be a better writer. Although, I couldn’t pin point why, also because of the judgmental old man vibe I received, I didn’t really want to.
There was some kind of rich human element to this book, and at several points Phillip suggests that if we are unsure of the subject we are writing about, that we should tie that real human confusion into our essays. He takes his own advice and displays it, again and again, which is another point of frustration for me. Good lord, do you see this? It should speak volumes about this book that now at the point in this review where I am trying to say something nice about it I simply can’t. Or maybe it says something about myself. And if it doesn’t, at least take this as an example of where self awareness does not justify lack of insight, which is really one of my biggest take aways from reading “To Show and To Tell”.
This book is just so much more a journey and reflection on Phillip’s life as a writer and a defense of the classics than it is an interesting exploration or educational piece about The Craft of Literary Nonfiction, although I do believe that given Phillip’s life of writing those two things may be easily confused. I really did want to like it, I really wanted to be able to embrace it and respect it, and given that I am not a miserable person, if I spend my time on something I want that thing to be of value. But even with the benefit of the doubt, I simply can not, and that inability on my part goes so much farther beyond my resentment towards Phillip for painting himself as some kind literary authority figure. The book is just okay.

Review: This is a great resource for those looking at the essay, and the literary essay in particular, as one of the pieces they may pursue. Jam packed with helpful stuff from someone who is clearly a master of the craft.

Title: .0 out of 5 stars One of the best books about memoir writing I’ve ever read.
Date: Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 25, 2013
Review: Philip Lopate has written an insightful volume about the importance of thoughtful reflection in recalling the events of our past in the writing of memoir. The goal is to bring our hard-won wisdom to the portrait of the I-character that we re-create from distant memory that is not only reflective, but that also rings true. The chapter on retrospective analysis and double perspective of the recalled I-character, with all her strengths, frailties, bravado, high spirits and/or foolishness, was a great help to me in my current work. Throughout this very entertaining, clearly written, intelligent, thought-provoking and challenging volume, Dr. Lopate challenges us to commit to reading more books, with a more discerning eye in our selection of the works of great writers, both from the past and those writing today. This kind of extensive and purposeful reading enables us to become more accomplished writers ourselves,learning from the great writers so that we may begin to increase in confidence and craftsmanship and begin to write at the very highest level at which we are capable. Write the truth with thoughtful reflection, rather than glib stylistic gimmickry, and you will write well, he advises. And his words strike a chord that rings true. No artifice. Just the well crafted, thoughtful telling and showing of the events, places, senses,and supporting cast of characters that surround the I-character in your story of a significant period of time in your life.. I highly recommend this book.

Title: .0 out of 5 stars He’s the Master
Date: Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 28, 2014
Review: I got TO SHOW and TO TELL: THE CRAFT of LITERARY NONFICTION, per my Professor’s suggestion on the syllabus for the class I was taking at the University of Miami, FL. Anyone who is acquainted with Lopate knows that he’s considered some kind of “Modern Master” of the essay. It doesn’t matter whether or not you believe that. What’s important is, there’s a lot of information for anyone who wants to learn about the history of the essay and desires to write one. Having written a variety of prose, most recently having completed a novel, I can tell you I am baffled by the essay.
TO SHOW and TO TELL isn’t a book to teach you how to write or steps on writing an essay. For that I suggest you go elsewhere and seek your lessons and support in another book. Lopate assumes you have a handle on knowing whether or not you can write and if you are a writer. He doesn’t spend anytime boosting the readers ego, while they’re reading and trying a become better essay writers.
In TO SHOW and NOT TO TELL, Lopate gets into craft and the history of the essay. Once you start reading you’ll see like anything working for, it takes study, practice and reading the masters. This is the first book you want to start reading if you want to write essays.

Review: Clear, I don’t have to guess, allows the breaking of some stifling rules, encourages me to let go of all the finger wagging do this don’t do that and just write my experience from my heart. As soon as I read that a seven year old child has only about a five hundred word vocabulary, I rewrote first person present to first person past tense and unleashed my very challenging story alive on the page. The book is written by a master teacher all writers should read. Every single word. Don’t skip any.
