Contagious Inspiration!

I take immense delight in reading anything by this author - and this book, the 3rd volume of his wonderful trilogy of "Handbooks For The Soul" is an homage to the pure heart of the writer found in the dialogue of a sundry array of works in film, stage, and literature. Mr. Newlove is in possession not only of an enviably keen eye and ear for the stuff that stirs the soul, but also with a passion for words further enhanced with an acquaintance with their power, so rarely discovered in literature. This is indeed a handbook for the soul - for it is wholly without academic babble - you will not find herein even a jot of instruction on the craft of writing, but rather a celebration of it ~~ And for any body who reads or writes for the shear and pure revelry of it, a celebration is all that could ever be desired!
