First, she explores the appetite for literary biography and how greater knowledge of the writer's life may affect the reader's appreciation of the work. Then, drawing on her personal experience as host of CBC Radio's Writers & Company, she presents specific instances of how writers reveal what is primary to them. Eleanor Wachtel, host of the CBC Radio's awardwinning Writers & Company and Wachtel on the Arts, has published four books of interviews: Random Illuminations: Conversations With Carol Shields, Original Minds, Writers & Company and More Writers & Company, and her work is included in the collections Dropped Threads and Lost Classics. Wachtel has received many honours for her contributions to Canadian cultural life, including the Jack Award for the promotion of Canadian books, six honorary degrees and the Order of Canada.
