Starred Review. In this hefty volume, novelist Friedman takes a look
at the artwork of more than 200 authors who found other avenues for
expression in drawing, painting or sculpting. Aside from the
familiar illustrations of Edward Gorey, Beatrix Potter and (to a
lesser extent) Kurt Vonnegut, Friedman also unearths work from
literary heavyweights past and present, including the Bronte
sisters, Herman Hesse, Rudyard Kipling, Colleen McCullough, Vladamir
Nabokov, John Updike and Jonathan Lethem. Each entry offers a short
biography and passages from journals, letters or interviews
illuminating the author's reasons for picking up pen or paint;
according to Elizabeth Bishop, for instance, writers make a
"frequent complaint that painting is more fun than writing."
Examples of authors' art, one or two from each subject, are
handsomely reproduced in vivid color alongside the text. Friedman
also covers a long list of writers whose artworks couldn't be located or
secured for publication, and essays by William H. Gass and Updike
provide perspective. Sure to cover at least a few of any given lit
fan's favorites, Friedman's volume provides hours of fascinating
browsing, and makes a perfect coffee table book for the avid reader.
