Críticas

"Nancy Crampton's photographs of writers provide a remarkable record of our literary moment." Philip Roth "Nancy has a fine and mysteriously effortless way of coming up with the best damn photographs." Norman Mailer "Nancy Crampton's Writers is an extraordinary and immensely valuable cavalcade of twentieth century writers." Harold Bloom

Reseña del editor

This book contains more than a hundred wonderful and sensitive black-and-white portraits of our major novelists, poets and playwrights. Paired with the photographs are fascinating texts from each writer on writing-thoughts on the craft, recollections of significant moments from their personal history and meditations on the civic importance of writing. Some of these photographs are well known - Bellow, Mailer and Capote - and others have never before been published. Many were taken on location, from Muriel Spark in Tuscany to Gabriel Garcia Marquez in Mexico.
