Book – The New New Journalism


I just learned of this book today, and really wish I had this as a resource a few years ago. Two of my favorite authors are interviewed in here: Jon Krakauer and Gay Talese. I have not read this yet, but will soon add this to the top of my reading list.

From the description on the website:

Forty years after Tom Wolfe, Hunter S. Thompson, and Gay Talese launched the New Journalism movement, Robert S. Boynton sits down with nineteen practitioners of what he calls the New New Journalism to discuss their methods, writings and careers.
