Devouring Time is the definitive biography of Jim Harrisonone of Americas most beloved writersand a penetrating deep dive into the life of the talent behind Legends of the Fall, Dalva, and True North.Jim Harrison (19372016) was widely considered one of the finest voices of his generation. His twentyone books of fiction and fourteen books of poetry influenced a generation of writers. Harrison helped to shape the course of contemporary American literature, revitalizing in particular the novella form, of which he was a recognized master.Harrisons literary achievements were matched only by the literary persona that he cultivated during a fecund time in American letters and in the company of a remarkable cohort of friends, writers, actors, and artists, including Thomas McGuane, Peter Matthiessen, and Jack Nicholson. Writing for magazines such as Sports Illustrated, Playboy, Esquire, and Outside in the 1970s, his journalism won him a loyal readership who reveled in his high spirits and prodigious appetites.For all his notoriety as a writer of prose, however, poetry remained his first and longestabiding love. He cherished his geographic remoteness from what he called the dream coasts of New York City and Los Angeles, preferring to hunt, fish, and drink in the backwoods bars of Michigan, Arizona, and Montana.Based on more than one hundred original interviews and drawing upon Harrisons collected papers, Devouring Time is the first and only literary biography of this beloved author, whose playful, irreverent, and spiritual work continues to find and delight new readers.
