520    "In The Trip to Echo Spring, Olivia Laing examines the 
       link between creativity and alcohol through the work and 
       lives of six of America's finest writers: F. Scott 
       Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, Tennessee Williams, John 
       Berryman, John Cheever, and Raymond Carver. All six of 
       these men were alcoholics, and the subject of drinking 
       surfaces in some of their finest work. Beautiful, 
       captivating, and original, The Trip to Echo Spring strips 
       away the myth of the alcoholic writer to reveal the 
       terrible price creativity can exert."--|cProvided by
