Summary: Essential if you want to study Kennedy's fiction
Review: I feel William Kennedy is one the best novelists of this century and little has been written about him since his heralded Pulitzer Prize winner, Ironweed. The interviews put Kennedy's career into a broader perspective by giving readers a glimpse into the author's desires, his growth, and tools/insights for delving into his fascinating novels. After reading this, you may feel that the interviews become redundant at times, which they do. The interviews, though, give Kennedy fans, such as myself, the author's perspective on literature, Albany, the power of writing, movies, and many other things.
