Great interview.
It´s really difficult to be sitting close tu Guy Talese. He looks charming
and the other looks like a garbage can.
Gay Talese is a solid writer, a better journalist, but I love him most for
his old world sensibilities. He is a terrible interviewer. He doesn’t
really answer the questions; he’s not concise, and he rambles. These
qualities aid his work, but they’re not meriting to watch.
el libro retratos y encuentros d Gay Talese son una buena y corta antología
de algunos de sus mejores escritos
2-7-2010. Ain’t it great? Gay Talese is 78. Happy Birthday, Gay.
And by that I mean, Talese was very good.
You are right. The guy is a clumsy interviewer in my opinion.
Is this dude the most dressed up journalist / writer and also one of the
best in modern journalism? Dr John CarSanook! Bangkok
hell of a guy. hats off to gay talese!
It seems to me that a lot of the older generation talks this way- sort of
rambling but in a really nice way. I guess they just grew up in a time
where there wasn’t any hurry to get the information out. It’s not what
we’re used to but once you get used to it I really like it.
What I regret the most is not been able to buy his books. If I buy them
here, in my country, they’ll be in Portuguese. It is such a shame! I don’t
even wanna read it.
ROLL TIDE ROLL Mr. Talese!!!
Somebody should tell Dean Nelson it’s rude to point your finger
