Description

Writers by Barry Gifford offers a unique perspective on famous literary figures in their most vulnerable moments. Through humorous, grotesque, and poignant prose, Gifford reveals the human side of these writers, exposing their flaws and weaknesses.

In this thought-provoking collection, we see the shared preoccupation with mortality that drives these writers to create. We witness their obsessions and struggles, and are invited to consider what it means to devote oneself entirely to art.

As an artist, success and failure are defined in a way that is both tender and thought-provoking. This book invites you to reflect on the nature of creativity and the human experience.
