The Ingram Interview

2011 National Indie Excellence Book Award Finalist - Fiction

The Ingram Interview, K.B. Dixon's unrepentantly quirky new novel, weaves its way interrogatively through the life of Daniel Ingram, a retired, none-too-healthy English professor who has been kicked out of an assisted-care facility because he was depressing other residents. Moving in temporarily with a former student of his-a young art-film maker named Michael Berger-Daniel works fitfully on a ramshackle memoir as he continues to pursue a reconciliation with his absent ex-wife.

Dixon's novels are "lean, tight, minimalist, quizzical, modern, urban. He's an acute observer with a humorous, slightly jaundiced eye, and he takes wry pleasure in playing around with literary form." Bob Hicks, Art Scatter

"...densely packed with thought-provoking, savvy, wise and often funny observations." Nancy Horner, Bookfoolery and Babble

"...both interesting and odd. ...A strangely satisfying read." Nadia Anguiano, A Bookish Way of Life

"An engaging impression of a man cut adrift...Comic and cutting, pithy and...profound." The Oregonian

"The Ingram Interview is described as 'unrepentantly quirky.' I can't disagree — it is also very funny—wryly, tongue-in-cheek funny." A Garden Carried in the Pocket

Interesting and new... Incredibly fun... " Roof Beam Reader

"I have never read anything quite like Dixon's books. Quick, quirky, fun, and clever." Sandy Nawrot, You Gotta Read This
