Harold Weston argues that form is not merely an aesthetic concern but the very foundation upon which effective literary expression is built, guiding readers through the mechanics of narrative construction, style, and technique. With a preface by celebrated playwright and poet John Drinkwater, the text carries the weight of serious literary endorsement and situates itself firmly within the tradition of early twentieth-century formalist criticism. Weston instructs writers and scholars alike on how conscious mastery of literary form separates competent prose from enduring art, making this an invaluable reference for students, academics, and practising authors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956320514267,"sku":"2026200008290-SECONDHAND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/5909e7c8-6b76-410c-ad0f-702c79e47387.png?v=1783499633","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200008290-secondhand-form-in-literature-a-theory-of-technique-and-construction","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
