Hardcover. Condition: Good. Right up until his death in 2008, John Leonard was a lion in American letters. Reading for My Life is a monumental collection of Leonardâs most significant writings â" spanning five decades â" from his earliest columns for the Harvard Crimson to his final essays for the New York Review of Books. Here are Leonardâs best writings â" many never before published in book form â" on the cultural touchstones of a generation, each piece a testament to his sharp wit, fierce intelligence, and lasting love of the arts. Definitive reviews of Doris Lessing, Vladimir Nabokov, Tom Wolfe, Don DeLillo, Milan Kundera, and Philip Roth among others, display his nearly encyclopedic knowledge of literature in the second half of the twentieth century. His essay on Ed Sullivan and the evolution of television remains a classic. Through Leonardâs reviews and essays is a dedicated political spirit, pleading for social justice, advocating for the womenâs movement, and forever calling attention to writers whose work challenged and excited him. Includes remembrances by Leonardâs friends, family, and colleagues. 384p.…
