From #1 New York Times bestselling novelist Neil Gaiman comes a fascinating collection of his nonfiction pieces exploring myriad subjects ranging from art and artists to dreams, myths, and memories-all observed, explored, and presented in the inimitable Gaiman style.
Neil Gaiman has been lauded for his groundbreaking, bestselling, genre-busting fiction. Gaiman, an inquisitive observer and commentator, is also a first-class practitioner of the personal essay. Here, collected for the first time ever, are more than sixty nonfiction pieces covering a wide array of subjects including (but not limited to): authors past and present; music; storytelling; comics; bookshops; travel; fairy tales; America; inspiration; libraries; ghosts; and the title piece, at turns touching and self-deprecating, which recounts the author's experiences at the 2010 Academy Awards ceremony in Hollywood.
Insightful, incisive, witty, and wise, The View from the Cheap Seats explores the issues and subjects that matter most to Neil Gaiman.
