The Paris Review is running ‘James Salter Month,’ a series of essays on Salter’s work, in anticipation of their annual Spring Revel on April 12.  The most recent essay is on Salter’s famous story “Last Night.”  Salter’s being honored at this year’s Revel with the Hadada Prize.  Looking forward to it.

      A Sport and a Pastime ripped off Hemingway so bad it is better than the original.

      Did Rilke ‘translate’ Blok? – or does Salter mean Celan‘s German translations?

      I am an absolutely unrepentant fan of Salter’s work, and had no idea Paris Review was doing this. So thanks for the tip. Also: Just finished Light Years, which I think towers over his other books.
