In teaching the piece, and sharing it with peers, I've found that there's something about it, some ineffable quality that speaks to essayists in particular—a finding which Doyle here reassures. <br /><br />The personal essay is so unique and varied, ranging from near strict memoir to almost absolute literary journalism, that I take great comfort in Levine's grasping reach for meaning. "The Essayist is Sorry..." evokes just how I feel when chasing varied threads of thought, and that makes me less alone. What more could you ask of the personal essay? Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
