Getting Naked with Harry Crews : Interviews

Interviews with novelist Harry Crews about his life, work, and writing craft In these 26 interviews conducted between 1972 and 1997, novelist Harry Crews tells the truth—about why and how he writes, about the literary influences on his own work, about the writers he admires (or does not), about which of his own books he likes (or does not), about his fascination with so-called "freaks." Crews reveals the tender side under his tough-guy image, discussing his beloved mother and his spiritual quest in a secular world.  Crews also speaks frankly about his failed relationships, the role that writing played in them, and his personal struggles with alcohol and drugs and their impact on his life and work. Those seeking insights into his work will find them in these interviews. Those seeking to be entertained in Crewsian fashion will not be disappointed.Author: Erik Bledsoe,editor Contributors: Erik Bledsoe,editor Binding: paperback Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Published/Release Date: 30 Sep 2025 Format: Paperback / softback Publisher/Studio/Brand: University Press of Florida Author/Director/Artist: Erik Bledsoe Dimension (cm): 229x152x21 mm Package Dimension (cm): 21x229x152 mm Item Weight (g): 708 Package Weight (g): 708
