- Double-weighted statement
- Containing 864 pages of meticulously researched detail, this is the second volume of Leader’s biography of Bellow. Like its precursor volume (published in 2015), the book draws on unparalleled access to Bellow’s papers in the possession of his estate and scores of interviews with colleagues and friends. Bellow is positioned in relation to American postwar fiction in order to elicit his innovative creativity. Reviews have attested to the book’s research effort: ‘monumental’ (Guardian), ‘feat of scholarship’ (Sunday Times), ‘astonishingly detailed and thoughtful’ (Spectator), ‘magnificently researched’ (Times).
