Whether it\u2019s two words (\u201cJesus wept.\u201d) or William Faulkner\u2019s 1,287-word sentence in Absalom! Absalom!, sentences have the power to captivate, entertain, motivate, educate, and, most importantly, delight. Yet, the sentence-oriented 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. <\/p>\n<p>Award-winning Professor Brooks Landon draws on examples from masters of long, elegant sentences\u2014including Don DeLillo, Virginia Woolf, Joan Didion, and Samuel Johnson\u2014to reveal the mechanics of how language works on thoughts and emotions, providing the tools to write powerful, more effective sentences.    <\/p>\n<p> Publisher                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 Plume; Great Courses edition (June 25, 2013) <br \/> Language                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 English <br \/> Paperback                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 288 pages <br \/> ISBN-10                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 0452298601 <br \/> ISBN-13                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 978-0452298606 <br \/> Item Weight                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 7.4 ounces <br \/> Dimensions                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 5 x 0.6 x 8 inches <\/p>\n<div id=\"product-summary\" data-hook=\"cr-insights-widget-summary\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-none\">\n<div class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-spacing-top-\">\n<h3 data-hook=\"cr-insights-heading-label\" class=\"a-size-base-plus a-color-base a-text-bold\">Customers say<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"a-spacing-small\"><span>Customers find the writing style terrific and useful.
