Face to Face Interviews With Contemporary Novelists

Just as writers of fiction offer new and interesting ways of looking at the world, the "literary" interview has evolved into an integral part of the process by providing a bridge not only between the author and the reader but between the fictional work and subsequent critical analysis. In Face to Face Allen Vorda offers the reader and in-depth look into the creative process of nine contemporary novelists. Interviews with such diverse writers as Robert Stone, Kazuo Ishiguro, and Marilynne Robinson cover not only the authors' work but also why they became writers, their writing habits, and opinions about other writers' books. Face To Face will appeal to readers of contemporary fiction as well as to literary critics and scholars.Vorda, Allan is the author of 'Face to Face Interviews With Contemporary Novelists' with ISBN 9780892633234 and ISBN 0892633239.
