Form, he argues, is not accidental or merely functional. The author arrives at a form through a careful negotiation between the self?s immersion in its world and its ability to distance itself from this world. The quality of the resultant self-scrutiny enables the author to transform everyday reflex into the act of attention that results in formal achievement, a uniquely crafted structure. Meihuizen?s book helps demonstrate how each piece of autobiographical writing under consideration in it (works by Yeats, Conrad, Martin Amis, Frank Kermode, Andrew Motion, Roy Campbell, Richard Murphy, and J.M. Coetzee) discovers a unique form. 410 0$aCosterus New Series$v216. 606 $aAutobiography$xAuthorship 606 $aBiography as a literary form 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAutobiography$xAuthorship. 615 0$aBiography as a literary form. 676 $a808.06/692 700 $aMeihuizen$b Nicholas$0876719 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910480946603321 996 $aAchieving autobiographical form$91957610 997 $aUNINA
