A Life Story
A comprehensive, scholarly biography that traces the writer’s life from Midwestern roots through wartime service and reporting, chronicling his rise to literary fame, major works, marriages and friendships, expatriate travels, and eventual personal and creative decline; drawing on letters, interviews, and archival research, the book illuminates the development of his distinctive prose, the shaping of his public persona, and the tensions between myth and the complex realities of his character and career.
