Lost Beach Interview With Alex Garland
Interview From a Time Capsule
Back to The Beach
A mesmerizing first novel that manages to be many things at once. A smart look at a generation way beyond mere disillusionment, an anti-travelogue to the most exotic of locales, a study in small-group psychology, and a convincing profile in madness.
Twenty years ago Frank Bures chatted with a young Alex Garland about his travel novel The Beach. Bures recently unearthed the interview--a time capsule of sorts from the dawn of global backpacking.
