Note(s) : "One of the most esteemed critics and writers of our time recalls his friendship and

offered him to the New York literary world in the 1970s" ; "Critic and writer Darryl
Pinckney recalls his friendship and apprenticeship with Elizabeth Hardwick and Barbara
Epstein and the introduction they offered him to the New York literary world. Pinckney's
education in Hardwick's orbit took place in the context of the cultural movements
then sweeping New York. In addition, through his peers and former classmates such
as Felice Rosser, Jim Jarmusch, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Lucy Sante, Howard Brookner,
and Nan Goldin--Pinckney witnessed the coming together of the New Wave scene in the
East Village. He experienced the avantgarde life at the same time as he was discovering
the sexual freedom brought by gay liberation. It was his time for hope. In Come Back
in September, Pinckney recalls his introduction to New York and to the writing life.
The critic and novelist intimately captures this revolutionary, brilliant, and troubled
period in American letters. Elizabeth Hardwick was not only his link to the intellectual
heart of New York but also a source of continuous support and of inspiration--in the
way she worked, her artistry, the beauty of her voice. Through his memories of the
city and of Hardwick, we see the emergence and evolution of Pinckney himself as a
writer."
