Conversations with Jim Harrison, Revised and Updated offers a
judicious selection of interviews spanning the writing career of
Jim Harrison (1937-2016) from its beginnings in the 1960s to the
last interview he gave weeks before his death in March 2016.
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.
