Matheson on Matheson: A Conversation With Dennis Etchison

Dennis Etchison

4.9/5 (12941 ratings)

Description:Over 15,000 words, a never before published conversation with Dennis Etchison that happened in front of Dennis' UCLA class one night, for more than two hours. Very relaxed, and they covered his entire career. Quite remarkable - unique, really. From the interview, "Richard Matheson is a writer's writer. It is impossible to say whether he is best known for his short stories (collected in Born of Man and Woman/Third from the Sun, The Shores of Space, the classic Shock! series), motion picture and television scripts (Duel, Burn, Witch, Burn!, The Twilight Zone, The Martian Chronicles, many others), or novels (The Shrinking Man, I Am Legend, What Dreams May Come, Bid Time Return [filmed as Somewhere In Time,] Hell House, etc.) He did it all with excellence for more than fifty years and received both the Howard and Bram Stoker Awards for Lifetime Achievement". "Whatever the subject matter - science fiction, fantasy, horror, mystery or mainstream - his style is intensely realistic and gripping, with a sense of honesty and personal conviction that cannot be faked. The short stories in particular, written in a tightly controlled, understated prose that lends his work the immediacy of a cold-sweat nightmare, are models of economy and effective storytelling, setting a standard that the best writers in this field have yet to surpass". "As a man, Matheson is genial, soft-spoken, candid and disarmingly modest. His public appearances are few; self-promotion is not in his nature, which makes what follows all the more remarkable".We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
