What David R. Slavitt Knows
An interview with the writer, poet, and translator, who’s both prolific
and long-lived (”What amazes me is not the 100 books but the fact that
I am 76 and have nine grandchildren.”)
“The book sold 4,000,000 copies and put my kids through college, and the
tax rates then went as high as 70%. So, je ne regrette rien....”

An Interview with Thomas E. Kennedy
In which they discuss Kennedy’s latest book, Getting Lucky:
New and Selected Stories, 1982-2012
“I guess that I have been lying for so long that I no longer know the
difference between a lie and the truth, but truth is born of lies. At first
I resisted the term ‘creative nonfiction,’ but now I find it very
handy to describe what I write—it’s all a lie and really happened,
it’s nonfiction that we create.”
