Edmund Wilson : A Biography, Paperback / softback Book

Edmund Wilson : A Biography Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This comprehensive biography of prolific critic, essayist, historian, and novelist Edmund Wilson (1895-1972) posits, quite successfully, that the subject lived a life as romantic and chaotic as his friend F.

Scott Fitzgerald's. Wilson suffered a nervous breakdown and the tragic death of his second wife (he was married four times, among them, Mary McCarthy); had affairs with numerous beautiful women, including Edna St.

Vincent Millay; and was friend to literary giants such as John Dos Passos, Vladimir Nabakov, and W.H.

Auden.
