Paris Review Writer Interviews

Post by shamatha1 » December 28th, 2004, 11:11 am

Thanks to a grant from the NEA, the Paris Review is making their entire archive of writer interviews (300+) available (no money down) on their website. The schedule is one decade every month or so through July, starting in December with the 1950s (Durrell Eliot, Ellison, among many others), with the 1960s (Borges, Celine, Ginsberg, Kerouac, Burroughs, etc) scheduled for January 10.

Unfortunately, it looks as if the Paris Review doesn't have the web rights to some of their own interviews, like Hemingway and Faulkner, so it's not a complete collection, exactly.

Time to abuse the employer's printer.

See the archive <a href="http://www.parisreview.com/literature.php">here.</a>

I been trying to figure out how to use html in these text boxes, no luck yet. The URL tag will get the links working not the regular html
looks like this

I was just poking around the site some more, and found they have a bunch audio of authors reading their own work, reading others work, and interviews. They've got about 5 interview with Hunter Thompson.


Funny stuff. http://www.theparisreview.com/audio.php/prmAlpha/U-Z
