Publishers Summary
With rare openness, Pulitzer Prize winner Robert Olen Butler reveals his process of writing: how he draws on his unconscious sensory memory to bring into being the moment-to-moment realization of character central to the experience of fiction. He and interviewer Kay Bonetti discuss A Good Scent from a Strange Mountain, a short story collection that won the 1993 Pulitzer Prize for fiction, as well as his latest novel, They Whisper, which explores sexuality as a search for the sacred. He also talks about his life and relationship to the Vietnamese people, his passion for fiction, his development from actor to playwright to novelist, and his quest for fiction as an authentically sensual experience.
