"Charles Baxter has a wicked talent for epigram that...serves his collection of essays admirably....This collection is not a rigorous work of literary criticism, but it is a pleasure to read, and it performs an important function--by mucking around in the problems that plague contemporary fiction, 'Burning Down the House' may spur both readers and writers first to a recognition of guilty complicity and then to constructive thought."Baxter, Charles is the author of 'Burning Down the House Essays on Fiction', published 1998 under ISBN 9781555972707 and ISBN 1555972705.
