Interesting Biography
It's quite a comprehensive look at the path his life took and the moments that forged him. Although it would have been good to have an extended look at some of his more famous projects, this book is about the man rather than the movie.

Too much about the times and not enough about Wes
Enjoyed listening out for the classic Craven films that I loved but did not hear enough about either Craven or the making of the movies but more about the society around them and their releases
