Miss Eudora Welty has long been in the highest rank of contemporary storytellers. Now in a collection of interviews she has given over the years, we hear her voice talking and intimately of the people who have stirred her compassionate imagination and of the art with which she has brought them to the page. She is a natural guide to all teachers and to all aspiring writers, a clear talker, always to the point.
Conversations with Eudora Welty shines with intelligence and humor. . . . It will be a pure pleasure for anyone who’s ever taken heart from Eudora Welty’s magical prose.
