Conversations with John Edgar Wideman

de John Edgar Wideman · Publicada por primera vez en 1998

This book spans thirty-five years. Wideman discusses a wide variety of topics - from post-modernism to genocide, from fatherhood to women's basketball. One of the pleasures of encountering these conversations is the glimpse they give into the workshop of the writer's mind. He is shown in the interviews to be very open about his artistic aims, techniques, and sources - whether talking about his Aunt May's storytelling or about African spirituality.
