Thank you jamesbritt for finding this link. This has to be one of the greatest things I have ever seen on the internet. Seriously. The sheer amount of information I can gleen from these interviews is worth so much more than almost anything I can think of. I'm busily copying many interviews and pasting them in plain-text format in order to read something when I have no internet or for when the end of the world arrives, whichever comes first. I'm resisting reading them online, though I have succumbed a few times. Congratulations to the Paris Review for making these available and again to jamesbritt for thinking of posting this link on Hacker News.

I had read various interviews over the years, and was stuck by how thoughtful they tended to be, on matters of writing and craft in general. Having them now online is real treasure, and just struck me as the sort of thing HN'ers would appreciate.
