Page last updated 8/3/2002. "It's strange. You never start out life with the intention of becoming a bankrupt or an alcoholic or a cheat and a thief. Or a liar." Raymond Carver The American short story writer and poet Raymond Carver was born in Clatskanie, Oregon, on May 25, 1938, and lived in Port Angeles, Washington during his last ten, sober years until his death from cancer on August 2, 1988. He was a Guggenheim Fellow in 1979 and was twice awarded grants from the National Endowment for the Arts. In 1983 Carver received the prestigious Mildred and Harold Strauss Living Award which gave him $35,000 per year tax free and required that he give up any employment other than writing, and in 1985 Poetry magazine's Levinson Prize. In 1988 he was elected to the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters and was awarded an honorary Doctorate of Letters from the University of Hartford. He received a Brandeis Citation for fiction in 1988. His work has been translated into more than twenty languages. At least that's the basic biography. Of course there's no room in it for the nature of the hardship he and his family went through during most of those fifty years between birth and death. There's no mention of his marriage at 19, the birth of his two children, Christine and Vance, by the time he was 21. No mention of his sometimes ferocious fights with his first wife, Maryann. No mention, either, of his near death, the hospitalisationsfour times in 1976 and 1977for acute alcoholism.

Carver's reputation continued to grow after his death at the age of fifty. Robert Altman's much praised film Short Cuts (1993) was based on several of Carver's stories. His short fiction is often placed in the realistic tradition of Stephen Crane and Ernest Hemingway and its post-modern version called minimalism. Carver himself did not like the label, because it "smacks of smallness of vision and execution.." "I love the swift leap of a good story, the excitement that often commences in the first sentence, the sense of beauty and mystery found in the best of them; and the fact - so crucially important to me back at the beginning and now still a consideration - that the story can be written and read in one sitting. (Like poems!) (from foreword in Where I'm Calling From Raymond Carver was born in Clatskanie, a mill town on the Columbia River in Oregon. His father was a sawmill worker, a violent alcoholic, and mother worked as a waitress or as a retail clerk or else stayed home. His family moved a lot in his childhood. Carver was educated at a local school in Yokima, Washington. Atr home his father used to tell him stories about his grandfather, who had fought in the Civil War, for both sides. Carver read mostly Michey Spillane's novels, or

He was raised in the Pacific Northwest, where he often set his sparely written tales of everyday blue-collar life. His personal struggles with poverty and alcoholism also colored his work. Carver's stark, minimal narrative style and episodic plot lines are particularly effective in capturing the gritty reality of his characters and the ordinary yet often revelatory nature of their experiences. His story collections include Will You Please Be Quiet, Please? What We Talk About When We Talk About Love Cathedral (1983), and Where I'm Calling From (1988). Also a poet, Carver published such volumes as Where Water Comes Together with Other Water (1985) and In a Marine Light Carver, Jonathan

30. Prose As Architecture: Two Interviews With Raymond Carver Two Interviews with raymond carver. As raymond carver surely knew, when the mandies the writer gets the final word, insofar as any word is ever final. http://titan.iwu.edu/~jplath/carver.html

Prose as Architecture: Two Interviews with Raymond Carver Translated by William L. Stull R aymond Carver's death at fifty in 1988 cut short the career of the most influential American short story writer since Ernest Hemingway. But it did not put an end to Carver's writingor his influence. In the years since Carver's death a steady stream of posthumous works has appeared, thanks in large part to the efforts of his widow, the writer Tess Gallagher. These range from Carver's last-written book of poems, A New Path to the Waterfall (1989), to some of his earliest literary efforts: No Heroics Please: Uncollected Writings (1991) and Carnations: A Play in One Act (1992). The biographical volumes Carver Country (1990), . . .When We Talk About Raymond Carver (1991), and Remembering Ray (1993) have kept his memory alive, as have the television documentaries Dreams Are What You Wake Up From (1989) and To Write and Keep Kind (1992). And of course there's Short Cuts (1993), Robert Altman's irreverent Hollywood take on Carver's world. As Raymond Carver surely knew, when the man dies the writer gets the final word, insofar as any word is ever final. (Think of Carver's much-loved poem "Gravy," a valediction published in The New Yorker three weeks after his death.) Despite the passing of the man, then, conversation with the writer continues. During Carver's life his principal means of dialogue with readers was the interview, a medium to which he readily submitted despite his native shyness. In compiling Conversations with Raymond Carver (1990) the editors located some 50 Carver interviews (in languages ranging from Dutch to Japanese) and included 25 in the finished book. There, Carver the writer once again has the last word. "I've got a book to finish," he assures the closing interlocutor. "I'm a lucky man."

These fish have no eyes these silver fish that come to me in dreams, scattering their roe and milt in the pockets of my brain. But there's one that comes heavy, scarred, silent like the rest, that simply holds against the current, closing its dark mouth against the current, closing and opening as it holds to the current. Fear of seeing a police car pull into the drive. Fear of falling asleep at night. Fear of not falling asleep. Fear of the past rising up. Fear of the present taking flight. Fear of the telephone that rings in the dead of night. Fear of electrical storms. Fear of the cleaning woman who has a spot on her cheek! Fear of dogs I've been told won't bite. Fear of anxiety! Fear of having to identify the body of a dead friend. Fear of running out of money. Fear of having too much, though people will not believe this. Fear of psychological profiles. Fear of being late and fear of arriving before anyone else. Fear of my children's handwriting on envelopes. Fear they'll die before I do, and I'll feel guilty. Fear of having to live with my mother in her old age, and mine.

Mit einem Vorwort von Judith Hermann. Ein Blinder und ein Sehender sitzen vor dem Fernseher und zeichnen gemeinsam, mit übereinander gelegten Händen, eine Kathedrale. Am Ende haben beide eine deutlichere Vorstellung davon, was eine Kathedrale ausmacht, als die gleichzeitig vor ihren Augen - respektive Ohren - ausgestrahlte kunstgeschichtliche Reportage ihnen jemals vermitteln könnte ... Das Personal der zwölf Geschichten, die Raymond Carver 1983 in seinem dritten Erzählungsband Kathedrale vereinigte, ist dasselbe wie in allen zuvor veröffentlichten: Paare, die sich nichts mehr zu sagen haben, Arbeitslose, Alkoholiker. Doch die Perspektive, die der Erzähler zu ihnen einnimmt, hat sich auf signifikante Weise verändert. Um nichts weniger Anteil nehmend an ihrem Elend, gelingt es ihm jetzt, sich so weit davon zu lösen, dass er imstande scheint, Auswege anzudeuten, Fluchtmöglichkeiten zumindest ahnen zu lassen.
