Can someone recommend a book that would be considered 'Creative Non-Fiction'?

Why yes. Yes, I can. That's what I write, and that's mostly what I read, so here you go."Creative nonfiction" involves different "styles," like memoirs or personal profiles that journalists and other writers create about people they interview or just know.

My very-favorite essayist would have to be David Sedaris. He's hilarious - and all of his books, so far, have been entertaining. I'd go with "Me Talk Pretty One Day," which is full of essays about speech therapy, his family, and other such subjects.

I really enjoyed reading David Foster Wallace's "A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again. " That's a long, but wildly entertaining, essay about a cruise that he took specifically so that he could write about it for a magazine. Nicholas Pileggi wrote "Wiseguys" - the movie "Goodfellas" was based on Michael Hall and his buddies.

Pileggi got to interview the Halls while they were in Witness Protection, and this is the book that came of it. It's a fascinating read. Steve Almond's "Candyfreak" was really good, too.

He was basically going around the United States, trying to find out as much as he possibly could about candy bars, especially regional varieties that not all of us know about. It's entertaining, but it's also full of interesting information. Those are just a few of my personal favorites.

You might also enjoy the "Best American Essays" series, which comes out with a new book every year. There are different editors each year, too, so each version is very, very different.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
