Somerset Maugham's reflection that each of us can only draw from that secret spring within our own nature. Edited by Brian Keyte and Richard Baines, the anthology presents a carefully curated selection of writing that spans mood, form, and subject, uniting diverse voices under the singular conviction that great prose resonates with something deeply personal and universal at once.\n\nPublished by Nelson, this collection stands as a thoughtful educational and literary resource, designed to instruct and inspire readers in the craft and appreciation of prose. Keyte and Baines demonstrate a discerning editorial sensibility, balancing accessibility with literary ambition, and the result is a volume that rewards both the casual reader and the serious student of writing. Whether encountered in the classroom or on a quiet afternoon, The Secret Spring leaves one wondering which undiscovered voice within its pages might unlock something new in the reader themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49160887271643,"sku":"2026200011666-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/4843c517-2848-4ecf-aaf6-60fad4b95782.png?v=1787187975","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200011666-secondhand-the-secret-spring-an-anthology-of-prose-writing","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
