Paul Bowles was born in 1910 and studied music with composer Aaron Copland before moving to Tangier, Morocco. A devastatingly imaginative observer of the West's encounter with the East, he is the author of four highly acclaimed novels: The Sheltering Sky, Let It Come Down, The Spider's House, and Up Above the World. In addition to being one of the most powerful postwar American novelists, Bowles was an acclaimed composer, a travel writer, a poet, a translator, and a short story writer. He died in Morocco in 1999.
Paul Bowles recalls his New England childhood, his musical training with Aaron Copland in Europe in the late 1920s and his connections with the famous writers of the 1930s, including Truman Capote, Tennessee Williams, Jean-Paul Sartre and Orson Welles.
