The interviews are mainly biographical, and apart from ideas about James Joyce and some other English and American authors, not much is said about Sollers' work. In 1981, Philippe Sollers was still a relatively unknown author, who had nonetheless published six novels and six collections of essays. He had not yet developed the main focus of his work, namely French (European) literature and culture of the Eighteenth Century, however in his later years the balanced ratio of novels and essays would remain.
The interviews in Vision à New York are dated and of little interest to general readers. ( )
