While this is an impressive publishing record for any writer, for Dubus, who suffered a near-fatal accident mid-career, it is near miraculous. Just after midnight on July 23, 1986, after stopping to assist two stranded motorists, Dubus was struck by a car. His right leg was crushed and his left leg had to be amputated above the knee. After months of hospital stays and surgeries, he would suffer chronic pain for the rest of his life. However, when he gave his first interview after the accident, his deepest fear was that he would never write again. This collection of interviews traces his career beginning in 1967 with the publication of his novel The Lieutenant, to his final interview given right before his death on February 24, 1999. In between are conversations that focus on his shift to essay writing during his long recovery period as well as those that celebrate his return to fiction with the publication of "The Colonel's Wife," in 1993. Dubus would share as well stories surrounding his Louisiana childhood, his three marriages, the writers who influenced him, and his deep Catholic faith."--Publisher's website. 600 10 $a Dubus, Andre, $d 1959- 650 0 $a Authors, American $y 20th century $v Interviews. 650 0 $a Fiction $x Authorship. 700 1 $a Edenfield, Olivia Carr, $e editor of compilation. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Dubus, Andre, 1959- $t Conversations with Andre Dubus $d Jackson : University Press of Mississippi, 2013 $z 9781617037863 $w (DLC) 2013009913 830 0 $a Literary conversations series. 941 $a 3 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018024224.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826080707.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20160331010728.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C895B1C2EAE411E387729F9EDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
