Description

First published in 1994, Paul Binding's portrait of Eudora Welty is being reissued to coincide with the 100th anniversary of her birth.

Eudora Welty was a Pulitzer Prize winner and recipient of numerous literary friendships and awards.

She was one of the greatest American writers of the twentieth-century.

Born in 1909 in Jackson, Mississippi. Eudora Welty was brought up in the harsh American South when it was bedevilled both by the Depression and racial discrimination.

Her acclaimed novels and short stories however are imbued with compassion and optimism, while also revealing her extraordinary gift for inhabiting the inner world of her characters. Paul Binding knew Eudora Welty, and in this book he draws on the many conversations he had with both her and her friends and fellow writers.

The Still Moment presents a critical portrait of a remarkable mind and a profoundly humanist writer.
