Based on the bestselling series from The Great Courses, Building Great Sentences celebrates the sheer joy of languageand will forever change the way you read and write.Great writing begins with the sentence. Whether its two words (Jesus wept.) or William Faulkners 1,287word sentence in Absalom! Absalom!, sentences have the power to captivate, entertain, motivate, educate, and, most importantly, delight. Yet, the sentenceoriented approach to writing is too often overlooked in favor of bland economy. Building Great Sentences teaches you to write better sentences by luxuriating in the pleasures of language.Awardwinning Professor Brooks Landon draws on examples from masters of long, elegant sentencesincluding Don DeLillo, Virginia Woolf, Joan Didion, and Samuel Johnsonto reveal the mechanics of how language works on thoughts and emotions, providing the tools to write powerful, more effective sentences.
