Synopsis

James Atlas' acclaimed biography is a magnificent portrait of an extraordinary life. Extensively researched and rich in detail, it explores how the child of poor Russian Jewish immigrants became the author of such classic novels as Herzog, Humboldt's Gift and The Adventures of Augie March, and went on to win the Nobel Prize for Literature.'The great biographical read of the year . . . An exhaustive, utterly compulsive trawl through a great, messy American life.' Douglas Kennedy, Independent
