Vollmann 101
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
The extraordinary range of writing here by Vollmann, himself an extraordinarily prolific writer, is a great window into the man's literary ambition and accomplishment. From poetry (just one), photos, essays, letters to editors and publishing houses, short stories, interviews...his calm intelligence and blazen sincerity shine in this collection I recommend for the uninitiated. Then move on to Europe Central. You need this primer just to appreciate his scope.
