FROM THE PUBLISHER - An engaging series of interviews with eighteen of the most influential American fiction writers to emerge and establish themselves during the l970s. These writers include a wide diversity of talents: men and women, realists and experimentalists, moralists and metafictionists In conversations which mirror their personalities, the authors reflect on life, the writing of fiction, and themselves. By turns combative, confessional, witty, and profound, these interviews provide a very personal look into the lives, thoughts, and fiction of contemporary American novelists. Between 1965 and 1980, American fiction turned sharply away from conventional realism to develop a variety of highly experimental forms. We came to expect (and still do) that in these new fictions anything can happen.' By the mid-1970s this experimental fervor had abated somewhat, with renewed attempts to merge non-traditional methods with more familiar forms. Today the debate between realism and postmodernism, between invisible and visible artistry, is contested in works and words as vigorously as ever - something to which these interviews all attest. The aesthetic and moral issues involved in these literary cross-currents are here addressed with a consistency and depth of vision that surpass previous works on the subject. inventory #5242.
