The Conversations is a treasure, essential for any lover or
student of film, and a rare, intimate glimpse into the
worlds of two accomplished artists who share a great passion
for film and storytelling, and whose knowledge and love of
the crafts of writing and film shine through. It was on the set of the movie adaptation of his Booker
Prize-winning novel, The English Patient, that Michael
Ondaatje met the master film and sound editor Walter Murch,
and the two began a remarkable personal conversation about
the making of films and books in our time that continued
over two years. From those conversations stemmed this
enlightened, affectionate book -- a mine of wonderful,
surprising observations and information about editing,
writing and literature, music and sound, the I-Ching,
dreams, art and history.
