The Paris Review Interviews: vol. 1


introduction by Philip Gourevitch // The Paris Review / Picador

• A PRINT's Regional Design Annual Selection

• The New York Book Show 2008 Award winner // Paperback Series

A selection of interviews with writers from The Paris Review that answers the question, "How do great writers do it?" One of my favorite is Joan Didion's account of how she composes a book—"I constantly retype my own sentences. Every day I go back to page one and just retype what I have. It gets me into a rhythm." That's exactly how I work.
