About this ebook:
In the course of the same old race I find myself writing about knowing some people how fame seems to set some people apart from us, once known: I was astonished by Ernest Hemingway s small, weak handshake when we were introduced at Scribners by John Hall Wheelock and by the jolt of force with which Elie Wiesel squeezed my hand. How long ago seems knowing, too: when I first meet Isaac Singer he asks me, Who is Mr. Saul Bellow? We re on the Upper West Side in his apartment next to the funeral parlor. A yellow parakeet hops around on Singer s bald forehead. Singer s great comic story of faith, Gimpel the Fool, has only recently been published from Yiddish into English in a translation by Saul Bellow. They re both still a long way from Stockholm. Do you know him? Can you tell me who this Mr. Bellow is? he asks. It was not always possible to guess Singer s motives in acting as though he was not impressed with worldly reputations. His features of a medieval Polish saint, even to a faint white-haired tonsure effect around the crown of his skull, were backlit by the glowing monitor from his mischievous incubus. from the Preface These are Richard Elman s candid snapshots in prose of the various, mostly literary celebrities he encountered during his four decades as a working writer and journalist among them Isaac Bashevis Singer, Tillie Olsen, Bernard Malamud, Faye Dunaway, Hunter S. Thompson, and other important artists and writers who were Elman s teachers and, occasionally, adversaries. Engagingly written and never superficial, these portraits and anecdotes in many cases strike to the center of each subject s art. To many readers, these persons are just names; Elman brings them to life while never simplifying or overdramatizing their work."
