His critical works were equally substantive. Readers of his criticism find his work challenging, and casual readers find his fiction highly enjoyable--a remarkable combination that speaks well of Owens's intellectual and creative abilities.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn a new collection of essays, \u003cem\u003eLouis Owens: Literary Reflections on His Life and Work\u003c\/em\u003e, editor Jacquelyn Kilpatrick and eleven other contributors examine Owens's fiction and nonfiction from widely varying viewpoints to address issues such as identity, place, literary theory, trickster motifs, and the environment. This text aids the reader in understanding the theories Owens articulated and how he followed those theories in his own writing. Also included is the last interview Owens gave, appearing in print for the first time, which provides insights into this complex man's personal life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jacquelyn Kilpatrick\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0806135875\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780806135878\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Oklahoma Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 6.06w x 0.83d","brand":"Jacquelyn Kilpatrick","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46640569975039,"sku":"9780806135878","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cb7e06bc-6f5f-43aa-815b-72dac73335c0.jpg?v=1740669979","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/louis-owens-volume-46-jacquelyn-kilpatrick-9780806135878","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
