Synopsis

2017 Hugo Award Finalist

2017 Locus Award Finalist

In addition to exploring Silverberg's career, now in its sixth decade, this collection of transcribed conversations delves into aspects of Silverberg's life-such as his extensive travel, passion for film, opera and classical music-not covered elsewhere. A decade-and-a-half-long friendship, and working together on When the Blue Shift Comes, afforded Alvaro the opportunity to speak at length with Silverberg. The result: a remarkably candid series of conversations that will be of interest to science fiction readers and anyone curious about the writing life.
