Annie Proulx's memoir.
« on: September 05, 2010, 06:14:17 pm »
I have just found out that early next year Annie Proulx's memoir is to be published. It will be called "Bird Cloud: A Memoir" and deals with Brokeback Mountain amongst other things. It is scheduled to be released on January 4, 2011. Something to look forward to in the New Year.

What Meryl said : cool 8).

But I can't help but wonder a little bit: this shy woman, who puts so much emphasis on her privacy, living at far out places, rarely giving interviews, suddenly wants to share her life?

Good point. We'll just have to wait and see. Perhaps it will deal more with her life as a writer than with her personal life. Also, in a memoir she gets to "talk" about what she wants to "talk" about, not what some interviewer wants to ask her about.

At various talks and appearances Annie Proulx HAS shared a lot about her life. She didn't strike me as an especially private person which unfortunately made it terribly easy for crackpots and extremists to descend on her Centennial, Wy, home and torment her mercilessly. She also made it too easy for people to contact her and there are so many crazies out there. Only after fame became oppressive did she retreat from the public scene.
