Unmet expectationsBy Nikolay NikolovAlthough this book received a big praise by the brainpickings.org website as 'THE handbook' to any aspiring novelist, I found very few takes of the literally giants interviewed useful. What I found strange is that this book is a collection of interviews between 204-2008, yet it is being advertised as something very contemporary. While containing invaluable communications with individuals who have unfortunately passed away, I can find no logic as to why it is published so many years after the interviews conducted in relation to selected books by the given authors.0 of 1 people found the following review helpful. lovely readBy wendy tronrudthe writing is especially clear and fluid and the sheer number of writers that freeman interviews helps make this a very valuable text.0 of 1 people found the following review helpful.

  • Beyond Borders: Traveling Through Literature
    Beyond Borders: Traveling Through Literature International Writers in Conversation at the Bay Area Book Festival Saturday, April 28 10:00 - 11:15 Literary Gems from the Emerald Isle Eimear McBride, David Hayden, Liz Nugent The small country of Ireland has always had a comparatively large influence on world literature. Three writers, who have flown to us from Ireland, represent the quintessence of modern Irish literature in the tradition of Joyce, Edna O'Brien, and so many other Irish masters. Surrealist feminist writer Eimear McBride creates a literary mosaic with her disjointed, artful syntax—NPR said "McBride's writing is so alive with internal rhymes, snippets of overheard conversation, prayers and unfiltered emotion." Short story artist David Hayden creates pieces that demand to be read, which the Irish Times called "exquisitely weird and so unobtrusively deadpan as to defy easy categorisation." Liz Nugent is a rising star who has written a dark thriller that Publisher's Weekly, in a starred review, called "an intense character study" that plays with truth. 10:00 - 11:15 Translating Trauma Katherena Vermette, Winnie Li Much profound literature focuses on the darkest parts of being human, and it takes an artful empathy to write about trauma. Katherena Vermette, a writer from the Métis nation in Canada whom Margaret Atwood heralded as "an accomplished writer who will go far," writes about violence and power struggles between women in her harrowing novel "The Break." Of Winnie Li's debut novel "Dark Chapter," inspired by her own experience as a survivor of assault, Kirkus reviews said: "That Li was able to write this novel, as both personal catharsis and public service, speaks volumes about her inner strength.

    The National Book Critics Circle Campaign to Save Book Reviewing, 2007 The National Book Critics Circle 2007 “Campaign to Save Book Reviewing,” launched April 23, 2007 as an initiative at the NBCC March 2007 board meeting, included more than 100 original blog posts from authors, critics, librarians, booksellers, passionate readers. The posts on Critical Mass over the first five weeks of the campaign offer a snapshot of American literary culture circa spring 2007, which was evolving faster than many readers, authors and book critics could absorb. Solicited from authors, editors, journalists, book critics and others involved with books and literature, the posts offered a diverse and wide‐ranging set of viewpoints‐‐as might be expected from a group of critics and passionate writers and readers. Among them: Richard Powers, George Saunders, Rick Moody, Lee Smith, Andrei Codrescu, Roxana Robinson, AWP (Association of Writers and Writing Programs) president Catherine Brady, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Richard Ford, Nadine Gordimer, Sara Paretsky, Stewart O'Nan, Nicholas Christopher, Bill Roorbach; book editors from the Los Angeles Times, the Washington Post, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the Pittsburgh Post‐ Gazette, the American Book Review, the San Francisco Chronicle, the New Orleans Times Picayune, the Jewish Forward, as well as Bob Mong, editor of the Dallas Morning News, Mark Sarvas, who writes the literary blog The Elegant Variation, and Carrie Kania, who described an inclusive approach to getting the word out about books she publishes: print, radio, television, online, including MySpace pages, literary blogs, bookstore websites. (Read the blog and the comments for the flavor of the sometimes heated discourse.) The campaign also included a series of related op ed pieces, editorials, interviews, literary blog posts, reports and reactions.
