Book Synopsis The Writer in Politics by : William H. Gass
Book excerpt: Six essays and panel transcriptions from The Writer in Politics conference, Washington University, October, 1992, featuring writers describing their place in the political arena. The presenters have "walked the walk" and include Mario Vargas Llosa, Luisa Valenzuela, Nuruddin Farah, and Carolyn Forche who collectively have run for political office, been exiled, jailed, or active as witnesses in a political life. Their insights are a fascinating examination of the role writers play can play as critics, resistors, and contributors to a society's evolution. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
