The Beat Generation: Critical Essays
An extremely well-written bio of Wally Stegner. Highly recommended...as are most of Stegner's works.
"Who cares what happened so many years ago?" she asked. "The ignorance of this woman," Lopez said, "has never ceased to frighten rather than amaze me." He observed that history for many people was a nuisance, and he bemoaned the loss of historical perspective. "It requires deliberation and reflection," Lopez wrote Stegner, "neither of which is in vogue in this country...We should practice the conservation of history as we practice the conservation of water."
