About This Item
Stanford, CA:: Stanford University Press,, (2007.). SIGNED hardcover first edition -. Fine in fine dust jacket.. First printing. A mix of memoir and reportage, this moves from Krasny's coming of age during the 1960s in the San Francisco area, with their blend of the civil rights movement and political activism, to his career as a struggling novelist, as an educator and, almost by accident, as a radio host. Each chapter highlights interviews with four authors, from Joyce Carol Oates, to Rusell Banks, David Mamet, Edward P. Jones, Alice Walker, Paul Auster, Studs Terkel, and Umberto Eco, to name only a few. SIGNED on the title page and dated in the year of publication. Photographs. 317 pp.
