POSTING: from a Paris Review Interview, (The Art of Fiction, No. - TopicsExpress

POSTING: from a Paris Review Interview, (The Art of Fiction, No. 223), with writer Joy Williams. Just a few random selections - Having been asked to discuss craft, she did not discuss craft. She discussed, instead, the twiddling nature of art pursued within a parameter of hours in prisons, nursing homes, kindergartens. What would be the point to discuss the craft of Jean Rhys, Janet Frame, Christina Stead, Malcom Lowry, each of whose works can teach us little about technique, and whose way of touching us is simply by exploding on the lintel of our minds. It is not technique that guided them. Their craft consisted of desire. We are American writers, absorbing the American experience. We must absorb its heat, the recklessness and ruthlessness, the grotesqueries and cruelties. We must reflect the sprawl and the smallness of America - its greedy optimism and dangerous sentimentality. And we must write with a pen - in Mark Twains phrase - warmed up in Hell. We might have something then, worthy, necessary; a real literature instead of the Botox escapist lit told in the shiny prolix comedic style that has come to define us.
