A firm believer that reading even the most challenging literature should be a fundamentally pleasurable experience, Chabon has produced an astonishingly diverse body of work that includes detective novels, weird tales of horror, alternative history science fiction, and rollicking chronichles of swashbuckling adventure alongside tender coming-of-age stories, sprawling social novels, and narratives of intense introspection. Uniting them all is Chabon's utterly distinct prose style--exuberant and graceful, sometimes ironic but never cynical. His work has earned accolades ranging from the Pulitzer Prize to Hugo and Nebula Awards. Conversations with Michael Chabon collects eighteen revealing interviews with the renowned author of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, The Yiddish Policeman's Union, and other much-admired works. Spanning nearly twenty years and drawn from science fiction fan magazines and literary journals alike, these interviews shed new light on the central concerns of Chabon's fiction. These interviews are essential reading for anyone seeking a better understanding of the life and work of an author who has been instrumental in defining the landscape of contemporary American fiction"-- Provided by publisher. 500 $a Includes index. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Michael Chabon: wonder boy in transition / Lisa See Kendall -- Michael Chabon / Michael Silverblatt -- Interview with Michael Chabon / Bob Goodman -- Interview: Michael Chabon / Scott Tobias -- Michael Chabon / Michael Silverblatt -- Michael Chabon / Barbara Shoup and Margaret- Love Denman -- Fassionable material: an interview with Michael Chabon / Neil Gaiman -- Escape artistry / Pat Jankiewicz -- Michael Chabon: pulp, comics, and baseball / Locus -- Artic jew: an interview with Michael Chabon / Jon Wiener -- "metaphor for the imagination": a conversation with Michael Chabon / Susan Breitkopf -- Totally unknown in Finland: an interview with Michael Chabon / Brian Beglin -- Michael Chabon: streams in a river / locus -- On comics, genres, and styles: a conversation with Michael Chabon / Victoria Ramirez, Patrick Murphy -- Michael Chabon / John Joseph Adams and David Barr Kirtley -- Michael Chabon's vinyl draft / Michael Mechanic -- Chabon on race, sex, Obama: "I never wanted to tell the story of two guys in a record store" / Andrew O'Hehir -- "A realm of mystery": an interview with Michael Chabon / Brannon Costello. 600 10 $a Chabon, Michael $v Interviews. 650 0 $a Novelists, American $y 20th century $v Interviews. 650 0 $a Fiction $x Authorship. 650 7 $a BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Literary. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a LITERARY COLLECTIONS / American / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a LITERARY CRITICISM / American / General. $2 bisacsh 600 17 $a Chabon, Michael. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00209183 650 7 $a Fiction $x Authorship. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00923713 650 7 $a Novelists, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01039688 648 7 $a 1900 - 1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Interviews. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423832 700 1 $a Costello, Brannon, $d 1975- $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Chabon, Michael. $t Conversations with Michael Chabon $d Jackson : University Press of Mississippi, [2015] $z 9781626746695 $w (DLC) 2014042849 830 0 $a Literary conversations series. 941 $a 4 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20190205031809.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20171221020731.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826112208.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20160331011739.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5437A0F83A6E11E5A08F40DADAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
