Sperber Prize</strong></p><p><strong>A spirited and revealing memoir by the most celebrated editor of his time.</strong></p><p>After editing <em>The Columbia Review</em>, staging plays at Cambridge, and a stint in the greeting-card department of Macys, Robert Gottlieb stumbled into a job at Simon and Schuster. By the time he left to run Alfred A. Knopf a dozen years later, he was the editor in chief, having discovered and edited <em>Catch-22</em> and <em>The American Way of Death</em>, among other bestsellers. At Knopf, Gottlieb edited an astonishing list of authors, including Toni Morrison, John Cheever, Doris Lessing, John le Carré, Michael Crichton, Lauren Bacall, Katharine Graham, Robert Caro, Nora Ephron, and Bill Clinton--not to mention Bruno Bettelheim and Miss Piggy. In <em>Avid Reader</em>, Gottlieb writes with wit and candor about succeeding William Shawn as the editor of <em>The New Yorker</em>, and the challenges and satisfactions of running Americas preeminent magazine. Sixty years after joining Simon and Schuster, Gottlieb is still at it--editing, anthologizing, and, to his surprise, writing.</p><p>But this account of a life founded upon reading is about more than the arc of a singular career--one that also includes a lifelong involvement with the world of dance. Its about transcendent friendships and collaborations, "elective affinities" and family, psychoanalysis and Bakelite purses, the alchemical relationship between writer and editor, the glory days of publishing, and--always--the sheer exhilaration of work.</p><p>Photograph of Bob Gottlieb by Jill Krementz</p>...1722176Avid Reader204249https://www.gandhi.com.mx/avid-reader-9780374713904/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/204942/0dfcef81-8e84-4313-afc4-bea13177add7.jpg?v=638834895047630000InStockMXN99999DIEbook2016Inglés
