A “delightful” (
Vanity Fair
) collection from the longest-running, most influential book review in America,
featuring
its best, funniest, strangest, and most memorable coverage over the past 125 years.
Since its first issue on October 10, 1896,
The New York Times Book Review
has brought the world of ideas to the reading public. It is the publication where authors have been made, and where readers first encountered the classics that have enriched their lives.
Now the editors have curated the
Book Review
’s dynamic 125-year history, which is essentially the story of modern American letters. Brimming with remarkable reportage and photography, this beautiful book collects interesting reviews, never-before-heard anecdotes about famous writers, and spicy letter exchanges. Here are the first takes on novels we now consider masterpieces, including a long-forgotten pan of
Anne of Green Gables
and a rave of
Mrs. Dalloway
, along with reviews and essays by Langston Hughes, Eudora Welty, James Baldwin, Nora Ephron, and more.
With scores of stunning vintage photographs, many of them sourced from the
Times
’s own archive, readers will discover how literary tastes have shifted through the years—and how the
’s coverage has shaped so much of what we read today.
