Conrad Richter: A Writer's Life is the story of an aspiring
writer who failed and then, desperate for money, tried again and
wrote himself out of penny-a-word pulp magazines and into a
Pulitzer Prize and a National Book Award. Based upon unrestricted
access to all of Richter's letters, journals, notebooks, and
private papers, this biography offers an intimate account of
Richter's personal struggle to achieve success in his own and in
other people's terms.
Johnson's biography will engage anyone interested in the art of
biography and in a novelist's act of writing. Admirers of Richter's
novels will also find much of interest in his life. So, too, will
those who find value in the story of a man who, despite his sense
of himself as an imperfect vessel for God's plan for human
evolution, lived his life with as much grace, determination, and
courage as he could.
