Harrison labeled himself and lived as a "quadra schizoid" writer. He worked in fiction, poetry, nonfiction, and screenwriting, and he published more than forty books that attracted an international following. These interviews supply a lively narrative of his progress as a major contemporary American author. This collection showcases Harrison's pet peeves, his candor and humility, his sense of humor, and his patience. He does not shy from his authorial obsessions, especially his efforts to hone the novella, for which he is considered a contemporary master, or the frequency with which he defied polite narrative conventions and created memorable, resolute female characters. Each conversation attests to the depth and range of Harrison's considerable intellectual and political preoccupations, his fierce social and ecological conscience, his aesthetic beliefs, and his stylistic orientations in poetry and prose." -- Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Harrison, Jim, $d 1937-2016 $v Interviews. 650 0 $a Authors, American $y 20th century $v Interviews. 700 1 $a DeMott, Robert J., $d 1943- $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Harrison, Jim, 1937-2016, interviewee. $t Conversations with Jim Harrison $b Revised and updated $d Jackson : University Press of Mississippi, [2019] $z 9781496819666 $w (DLC) 2018041318 830 0 $a Literary conversations series. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190402014324.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0536594C3F1811E98434DF6697128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
