Summary:

Creativity is an elusive subject. We enjoy its fruits—movies, novels,
paintings, songs—but rarely are we privy to what happens during the
creative process. In Spark, Julie Burstein traces the roots of some
of the twenty-first century's most influential and creative artists
and thinkers, including Joyce Carol Oates, Yo-Yo Ma, David Milch,
Isabel Allende, and Joshua Redman. Burstein pulls back the curtain to
reveal the sources of these artists' inspiration and the processes
that bring their work into being. Creativity is integral to business,
parenting, education, science, and, perhaps most poignantly, our
personal relationships. Rarely do books on creativity illuminate and
inspire; this marvelous volume will help you find a spark of your
own.
