" Gore Vidal's imagination of American politics...is so powerful as to compel awe."

It is a great honor to announce that Gore Vidal will be joining us in 2009. It's hard to imagine anyone more fitting for Historical Fiction than the man who not only wrote Lincoln, The City and The Pillar, Julian and Burr, but who has been a dynamic figure in the political and cultural arena his entire life, who is himself a major figure of American history of the 20th century.


The journal of the Key West Literary Seminar features recordings from our audio archives, exclusive interviews, essays, news about the Seminar, and dispatches from Key West's literary past and present. It is created by Arlo Haskell. Send email to arlo [at] kwls [dot] org

Each January, we explore a different literary theme through lectures, panel presentations, readings, informal gatherings, and discussions. In January 2011, we explore food in literature with our 29th annual Seminar, THE HUNGRY MUSE.
