In Other Words: Artists Talk about Life and Work

In Other Words collects the most intimate and revealing interviews by Anthony DeCurtis, who, in the course of a distinguished 25-year career, has earned a reputation for approaching his craft with depth, seriousness and sensitivity. His many subjects — music legends, movie directors, artistic provocateurs, up-and-coming talents, visionary songwriters — all speak with rare candor about the meanings within and the motivations behind their best work. Many of these interviews — which originally appeared in Rolling Stone, The New York Times and other publications — have been significantly expanded. DeCurtis has also written new introductions that tell the story behind these stories, transforming this collection into an episodic memoir of a life on the front lines of cultural journalism. These gripping conversations will make readers feel that they are sitting, as DeCurtis did, at a dinner table or in a quiet room alone, learning everything they want to know about some of the most revered artists of our time.
