Raymond Williams has made a central contribution to the culture of the Left in the English-speaking world. <i>Politics and Letters</i> is a volume of interviews with Williams, conducted by members of the <i>New Left Review</i> editorial committee, that is designed to bring into clear focus the major theoretical and political issues posed by his work. Introduced by novelist Geoff Dyer, <i>Politics and Letters</i> ranges across his biographical development, the evolution of his cultural theory and literary criticism, his work on dramatic forms and his fiction, and an exploration of British and international politics.
