THE LEGENDARY TEACHER OF STORY... THE DEFINITIVE GUIDE TO DIALOGUE ...

“Writing dialogue is a challenging art. McKees book DIALOGUE is a great tool for writers.” - John Lassater, chief creative officer, Pixar and Walt Disney Animation Studios

“McKees DIALOGUE is a mother lode of insight and inspiration for any writer. His teachings have changed my career and changed my life. Robert McKee is in a category of one.” - Steven Pressfield, bestselling author of The Legend of Bagger Vance, The War of Art and Gates of Fire

“McKee teaches what is not yet taught. He shines his unwavering analytical light on the structure and invisible substructure of dialogue. He takes a craft that is often considered instinctual or magical and reveals its chemical secrets.” - Terry Johnson, writer/director, winner of the Tony Award, Olivier Award, Critics' Circle Theatre Award and Writers Guild Award

“DIALOGUE is a masterwork. There's nothing harder to teach. Now this book exists. McKee has written an essential book akin to The Elements of Style for all writers.” - Margaret Nagle, writer/producer of Golden Globe-winning TV Series Boardwalk Empire, winner of the Writers Guild Award, Emmy, NAACP, and PEN

“A rich and useful companion for practising writers.” - Kirkus Reviews

“I used to think great dialogue couldn’t be taught. You either had an ear for it or you didn’t. That was before I read McKee’s DIALOGUE. He’s a wizard at explaining the unexplainable.” - Sarah Treem, writer/producer, co-creator and showrunner of Golden Globe-winning TV Series The Affair, winner of the Writers’ Guild of America Award and Emmy Award nominee
