Summary: Price Listed is not the correct price.
Review: I have this book (in this paperback edition). The back of my book lists the US retail value at $14.95. The Canadian retail value is $21.95. I've emailed Amazon requesting that they correct the information. I would wait before purchasing this book.

Summary: a Very nonpretentious and effective book for novice writers
Review: If you are looking for an easy, non pretentious book that will show you the basics of creative writing, this is it. Many books on writing are so scholarly that they either confuse of bore the reader to tears. Others are back pating "yes you can books" that give the reader plenty of insprarion but no techniques. Creative writing is very direct and simple. It shows all of the various forms of creative writng. It gives you an exapmle of the writing and then shows you how to do it. Very simple. I found this book to be extremely usefull whenver I am looking to explore a new from of writing and I want a basic understanding on how to do it. A good buy for novice writers.
