The DNA of Literature. The Paris Review, with a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts, makes available free .pdfs of fifty years of interviews with leading writers.

Wow, great find! Seems they only got as far as 1969, tho. Guess we'll have to wait for the rest. Thanks, rushmc!

Yes, but I believe they are adding them pretty quickly and I thought there was enough content there now to justify the notice...

Humbug!

The search still sucks...I tried the URL and "the DNA of Literature" and even looked through the "Paris Review" hits. Sigh. Delete at will.

Oh, wow! I'm going to have to keep checking back until they add the 1979 John Gardner interview. Plenty to geek out on until then, though. The E.M. Forster interview is lovely. Thanks so much for posting this link!

a search for "paris review" (no quotes) in the past year only gives two results, this post and the one it doubles...
