Evan s connell books5/30/2023 ![]() ![]() "To be that good in fiction, nonfiction and poetry is really, really remarkable. "We believe he's one of the most important postwar (WWII) American writers," Patrick Lannan said at the time. The Santa Fe-based Lannan Foundation awarded Connell its $100,000 Literary Award for Lifetime Achievement in 2000. He once worked as an interviewer in an unemployment office in the San Francisco area, where he lived for more than three decades before moving to New Mexico in 1989. At times, he took odd-jobs to support his literary pursuits. He traveled to Europe, and lived briefly in Paris before returning to the United States in the mid-1950s. He studied creative writing at Stanford and Columbia universities, but unlike many authors he never taught, saying that campus life was too comfortable.

After the war, he returned to college and graduated from the University of Kansas in 1947 with a degree in English literature.

Beyond black mantel5/29/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() Indeed, her mother feels that it could be one of any number of men and does not care. Her mother was a prostitute and neither Alison nor her mother has any idea who her father was. As we gradually discover, she had a grim childhood. ![]() Not only is she able to speak to the dead (a term, of course, strictly forbidden in her profession) but she sees various spirit guides, the shapes of those departed, who, in her case, are those who were around in her childhood. The story is about Alison Hart, a woman who has the gift. ![]() As she comments, the spirit world is a bit like Aldershot which, for those not familiar with this town, is a fairly grim and bourgeois garrison town in the South of England. The temptation for many a writer would be to mock or to go super-Gothic but Mantel does neither, rather telling her story in a more or less realist fashion but peppered with wit and insight into the life of ordinary people. Once again Mantel shows us that she is one of the finest writers in England today, tackling what could be a tricky subject, that of spiritualism and the spirit world.
