Writers At Work

For decades The Paris Review has cornered the market on insightful, compelling, essential author interviews. The book series of the interviews, known as Writers At Work, is a must for all who hold literature and writing dear.

Think I'm being a little over the top? I'm not! And to prove it, The Paris Review is undertaking a major project to get all of the interviews online! This is amazing.

They call it the DNA of Literature. The interviews from the 1950s are currently online, including gems with masters like William Styron, Isak Dineson and William Faulkner.

The project should be completed by Summer 2005. Check back often!
