The Story Talks Back John Gardner: Remembering a passionate, controversial advocate for writers and fictionIn the 1970s, John Gardner was a star in the world of literary fiction, often mentioned in the same breath as Norman Mailer, John Updike, and Kurt Vonnegut.

He had become a legendary teacher of creative writing, authoring two now-classic guides to the craft. He had also been accused of plagiarism and offended many of the most famous writers of his day with his 1978 diatribe "On Moral Fiction." Less than three weeks before his...
