An essay collection exploring his education as a man, writer, and activistand how we form our identities in life and in art
As a novelist, Alexander Chee has been described as masterful by Roxane Gay, incendiary by the New York Times, and brilliant by the Washington Post.

He examines some of the most formative experiences of his life and the nations history, including his fathers death, the AIDS crisis, 9/11, the jobs that supported his writingTarot-reading, bookselling, cater-wailing for William F. Buckleythe writing of his first novel, Edinburgh, and the election of Donald Trump.
By turns commanding, heartbreaking, and wry, How to Write an Autobiographical Novel asks questions about how we create ourselves in life and in art and how to fight when our dearest truths are under attack.
