In this frank and fascinating conversation, Walker reminisces about coming of age in Chicago in the thirties, where she worked for the WPA with people like Jack Conroy and Nelson Algren and was a member of the South Side Writer's Group. She also discusses Jubilee, her epic novel of the Civil War, as well as her biography of former friend and colleague Richard Wright, her own development as a writer - including her decision to return to the South to live and work - and her view of the continuum of African-American literature.
