Jackson: University Press of Mississippi, (1991). First edition - "Best known to her many readers as a novelist and keeper of journals, Sarton sees herself pre-eminently as a poet. In the interviews collected here she speaks forthrightly about herself, her independence, and her writing. Although born in Belgium, Sarton is quintessentially American in her choice of solitude on which her personal well-being and writing depend. . . . These interviews offer Sarton's readers the model of a woman who has supported herself as a writer of achievement, who has made her way without the comforts of academic tenure, grants, or bestseller listings." Contributors include Karla Hammond, Kay Bonetti, William Heyen and Mary Elsie Robertson and many others. Edited and with an introduction by Earl G. Ingersoll. A title in the Literary Conversations series. Fronstispiece portrait. Index. 213 pp. ISBN: 0-878055339.
