The Art of Fiction
James Salter's exalted place in American letters is based largely on the intense admiration of other writers, but his work resonates far beyond the realm of fellow craftsmen, addressing themes--youth, war, erotic love, marriage, life abroad, friendship--that speak to us all.
Following the publication of his first novel, Salter left behind a military career of great promise to write full-time...
James Salter was the acclaimed author of the novels A Sport and a Pastime, Light Years, and All That Is, the memoir Burning the Days, and the PEN/Faulkner Award-winning collection Dusk and Other Stories. He was the first Kapnick Foundation Distinguished Writer-in-Residence at the University of Virginia, a position inspired by William Faulkner's residency at the university in 1956-58.
