Elmore Leonard, an American crime novelist, has a voice that is original and immediately recognizable. This collection of original interviews with fellow authors, collaborators and critics covers all things Leonard, from analyses of characterization and dialogue in his writing to his many screen adaptations. What makes Leonard's work more cinematic than that of other talented contemporaries is his deceptively simplistic method of description that still manages to paint a vivid picture in the reader's mind. The unique perspectives in this collection discuss many of Leonard's forty-four novels, including those that have been adapted to television and motion pictures like Get Shorty, Out of Sight, and Jackie Brown.
