Lish's version:
When you read your New York Times Magazine this Sunday (or Saturday, if you live in New York), you will learn about a raging controversy (ok, minor dispute) in the literary world: Does former Knopf fiction editor Gordon Lish deserve credit for author Raymond Carver's success?
It may be possible that, as Carver's fans claim, he wrote his best pieces after he ended his relationship with Lish, but Culturebox is here to tell you that Lish's version of the story Hall republished is infinitely better--sparser, cleaner, and much more menacing, which just what the story needs.
However, the article also includes a certain amount of vituperation of Lish by Carver's friends.
(Lish is an easy target, since he's enormously controversial for a number of reasons: his mannered writing style, for one, and his interventionist editorial style, for another, which made other authors' careers and also earned their enmity.)
