Description:
Saul Bellow's parents emigrated from Russia in 1913, and Bellow's early years vividly reflect the Jewish immigrant experience in America. His boyhood in Montreal and Chicago, marked by his family's transient existence and struggle for economic survival, would later inspire many characters and scenes in Bellow's fiction. It was at the University of Chicago that he began to come into his own, discovered his unique voice, and encountered many of the writers and intellectuals who would populate his writing life.
Expand description
Atlas chronicles Bellow's personal adventures and literary career against the rich social and cultural background of the times, as between 1944 and 1976, Bellow wrote such modern classics as The Adventures of Augie March, Seize the Day, Henderson the Rain King, Herzog, and Humboldt'S Gift, which won the Pulitzer Prize. He also won the National Book Award three times, and in 1976, the Nobel Prize for literature. Five volatile marriages, many other tempestuous relationships with women, intellectuals, publishers and friends -- "Bellow": A Biography is a magnificent portrait of the life and times of a writer generally considered one of the premier writers in the English language.
