The biography of William Saroyan, a literate and revealing picture of one of my favorite flawed writers. Saroyan the man was passionate, generous, self-absorbed ("I love mankind - it's People I can't stand" truly applied to him), vain and immensely talented. Saroyan the writer was at his best as moving and inspirational as anyone I've ever read, and at his worst, he could be cruel and self-pitying. A nice treatment of a complex man.

Along with Ernest Hemingway, William Saroyan--winner of a Pulitzer Prize in drama for The Time of Your Life and an Academy Award for the screenplay of The Human Comedy,--was the most well-known American writer of the 1930s and 1940s. Peabody Award-winning journalist Lawrence Lee and award-winning novelist Barry Gifford heard Saroyan's story first-hand from Carol Matthau, the wife he rejected; the son and daughter he alternately smothered and pushed away; and colleagues like Artie Shaw, Celeste Holm, and Lillian Gish. Their revelations bring new depth to Saroyan's riveting story. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
