Perfect for lovers of literature and students of the written word, How I Got My Scar offers a rare opportunity to explore authorial voice, narrative structure, and stylistic devices across genres and centuries. Ideal for classroom use in English literature and creative writing, the book doubles as both fiction and pedagogy, an accessible, engaging introduction to comparative literary study. Whether you're learning to write, teaching others, or simply delighting in the dance of language, this book will sharpen your eye, your ear, and your sense of story. A scar may mark the flesh, but it is voice that marks the tale.
