About This Show
Dr. R. Blakeslee "Blake" Gilpin, Associate Professor of History at USC, Columbia, returns to the Journal to talk with Dr. Edgar about the life and work of Virginia author, William Styron. With Rose Styron, Gilpin edited the correspondence of Styron, Selected Letters of William Styron (Random House, December 2012).
Collecting, transcribing, and notating Styron's letters has provided the foundation for two original projects related to the author and his work. Gilpin is currently writing a new biography of Styron as well as completing a manuscript about Nat Turner, William Styron, and the longevity of slavery's hold on America's racial imagination.
