What Will Survive of Us: Collected Essays

By Ron Rash

Collected essays from beloved New York Times best-selling author Ron Rash, marking the first book about his life as a writer.

Award-winning novelist and poet Ron Rash shares both previously published and new material in this exciting new collection, including a never-before-published interview with Rash about his recent work. In the first thirteen essays, Rash offers insights into his own writing process, practice, and influences. He also explores his admiration and analysis of both classic and contemporary writers, including William Faulkner, Flannery O'Connor, Eudora Welty, William Gay, Daniel Woodrell, Pat Conroy, Colum McCann, and others. The collection's final section includes a dozen pieces illustrating his deep belief in the importance of place in his writing and in his life. Fans and students of Rash--called "one of the great American authors at work today" by The New York Times--will find this collection a rich and essential addition to their libraries.
