Tabula Rasa (2023) Signed First Edition Reference

Tabula Rasa (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2023) is McPhee’s meditation on the blank page and the writing process — combining practical advice with reminiscences from his long career, including abandoned projects and the stories behind stories. Published when McPhee was ninety-two, it functions as both a craft guide and a valedictory reflection.
