Wired For Books home Don Swaim Interviews Audio Interview with Pat Conroy In this 1986 interview with Don Swaim, Pat Conroy talks about his semi-autobiographical novel, The Prince of Tides , attending The Citadel, his publishing experiences, and his family's role in his life and work. Pat Conroy says he was raised by his mother to be a Southern writer and that his father, a career Army officer, was a sort of "Nazi Dr. Spock" who wanted his son to be like him. He remembers being fired from his job as a school teacher and learning that writers didn't have to pay to have their books published. Conroy also talks about his father as the source of the character in The Great Santini Listen to the Pat Conroy interview with Don Swaim, 1986 (25 min. 54 sec.)

Don t destroy the state s best college by pat conroy. Sunday, January 10, 1999. http://www.fadedgiant.net/html/conroy__pat_the_citadel_editor.htm

Guide To Rare And Old Book Values Fadedgiant.net At Fadedgiant Books Don't destroy the state's best college by Pat Conroy Sunday, January 10, 1999 Reprinted from Charleston, South Carolina’s newspaper. I recently read that Sen. Arthur Ravenel, a man I respect very much, has proposed a merger of all the public colleges in Charleston into a single university system. Sen. Ravenel seems to be strongly antagonistic lately to my college, The Citadel, and his plan would effectively destroy my alma mater. I will cheerfully and passionately stand in the senator's way on this important matter. Though The Citadel can be a difficult place for outsiders to understand, its place in South Carolina's history is sacrosanct and revered. It is a military college of the first rank in a time when our nation needs more military colleges, not less. The Citadel seems to be in a state of either shock or depression after the recent debacle on the admission of women into the corps. It seems to have lost its bearing and confidence. The old strut and dash and roar have been lost in the shuffle of history. The Citadel family seems inarticulate when it comes to the task of expressing the nature of its own incomparable excellence. It seems to have forgotten the fact that it is the best college in the state, by far, and one of the best in the country.

When critics assess the works of best-selling author Pat Conroy , they inevitably note his ability to explore the great themes of life - the struggle for equality and justice, the value of intellectual freedom, and the necessity for individual autonomy. They note, as well, his remarkable ability to evoke feelings that many of us share. Whether it is the racism found in The Water is Wide , the tyranny of authority in The Great Santini , the coexistence of honor and brutality in The Lords of Discipline , or the cruelty and betrayal exposed in The Prince of Tides , Pat Conroy does not flinch from writing about the evils and harsh realities of life. Yet, despite a past that includes the most ruthless of personal experiences, his work resonates with an affirmation of life and a quest for the liberation of truth. As a writer, he has reached out to all of us and given a voice to the pain and hope that we share.

Pat Conroy Complete Pat Conroy Signature Example Books by Pat Conroy: The Boo (available in Hardcover Book Description: Pat Conroy wrote the Lords of Discipline not only out of the desire to write and be published, but to give us an insight as to what went on inside the Citadel walls. I think only a person who knows what actually goes on there could write such a book. Of course, Mr. Conroy is persona non grata at the Citadel. His portrayal of the school is less than favorable, but very realistic. The letters written between Courvoisie and the mother are excerpts of actual letters. Conroy did not make these up. Read to see what this fascinating man had to answer. I found The Boo to be truly revealing about life at The Citadel. This is the only book Conroy wrote in which he did not make a significant effort to mask those involved. Printing History: First Edition-(only 2000 copies printed) 1970-McClure Press.

The Water Is Wide The Lords of Discipline The Great Santini The Prince of Tides ... The Last Angry Man Pat Conroy Born: 10/26/1945 Atlanta Georgia USA Your browser is not Java capable or Java has been disabled. About the Author The novelist Pat Conroy's life and personal experience are so inextricably bound up with his writing that, at first glance, it might seem that he is merely retelling the story of his life, again and again. The truth is, as usual, far more complicated and interesting. Significant elements and characters in his novels are obviously drawn from his life, a choice that apparently has created tremendous tension in his family. But these facts are merely points of departure for the author, who has a gift that is perhaps the most desirable and elusive of all for any novelist the ability to spin an unforgettable story. Conroy was born in 1945 in Atlanta, the eldest of seven children and the son of Col. Donald Conroy, a man not unlike the hero of "The Great Santini." He attended The Citadel, the South Carolina military academy that inspired the setting for The Lords of Discipline, and briefly taught school on an island off the South Carolina coast, an experience recounted in The Water Is Wide. The fallout from his life with his family seems to have inspired Conroy to create deeply compelling stories of vivid characters searching for love and fulfillment. These tales are invariably rooted in the infernal complexities and often dark realities of Southern tradition, notably in The Lords of Discipline and The Prince of Tides. The death of his mother a crafty Southern woman who chose to be called Peggy, after the author of "Gone With the Wind" led him to write his most recent novel "Beach Music."

Preview About The Movie The truth is this: Things happened to my family, extraordinary things I know families who live out their entire destinies without a single thing of interest happening to them. I have always envied those families. The Wingos were a family that fate tested a thousand times and left defenseless, humiliated, and dishonored. Bu my family also carried some strengths into the fray, and these strengths let almost all of us survive the descent of the Furies. Unless you believe Savannah; it is her claim that no Wingo survived. I will tell you my story.
