In this new edition, which has been updated with the
inclusion of six previously uncollected essays, Styron
covers a wide range of concerns; yet whether he is
recounting his search for the historic Nat Turner, peering
into the abyss of Auschwitz, navigating the battlefields of
Vietnam and Chicago in 1968, or offering fresh assessments
of Thomas Wolfe, F. Scott Fitzgerald, William Faulkner,
James Jones, and Robert Penn Warren, Styron is always a
consummate literary stylist, one who is as engaging as he is
engaged.
