“Books Can Endure ... You Can’t Say That
of Much Else in This World”

Author Craig McDonald (who Rap Sheet contributor Jim Winter interviewed last October) sits down yet again to explain himself, this time to the UK-based Webzine Pulp Pusher. In an exchange with his former Bleak House editor, Alison Janssen, McDonald talks about transitioning between journalism and fiction-writing, writing the graphic-novel version of Head Games, the 1955 film noir The Night of the Hunter, and why he’d like to have been writing in the time of Ernest Hemingway, rather than now.

You’ll find the whole fine interview here.

Thanks for posting the link. I enjoyed the interview. I'm really looking forward to his next in the Lassiter series.
