The Gospel Singer

Harry Crews said, “Nothing in the world has ever been done by well-rounded people. The good work is done by people with jagged, broken edges, because those edges cut things and leave an imprint, a design.”

And he said, “ Writers spend all their time preoccupied with just the things their fellow men and women spend their time trying to avoid thinking about...It takes courage to look where you have to look, which is in yourself, in your experience, in your relationship with fellow beings, your relationship to the earth, to the spirit or to the first cause- to look at them and make something of them.”
