There Is Simply Too Much to Think About: Collected Nonfiction

There Is Simply Too Much to Think About: Collected Nonfiction

â€œBellowâ€™s nonfiction has the same strengths as his stories and novels: a dynamic responsiveness to character, place and time (or era) . . . And you wonderâ€”what other highbrow writer,Â or indeed lowbrow writer has such a reflexive grasp of the street, the machine, the law courts, the rackets?â€ â€”Martin Amis,Â The New York Times Book Review

The year 2015 marks several literary milestones: the centennial of Saul Bellowâ€™s birth, the tenth anniversary of his death, and the publication of Zachary Leaderâ€™s much anticipated biography. Bellow, a Nobel Laureate, Pulitzer Prize winner, and the only novelist to receive three National Book awards, has long been regarded as one of Americaâ€™s most cherished authors. Here, Benjamin Taylor, editor of the acclaimed Saul Bellow: Letters, presents lesser-known aspects of the iconic writer.

Arranged chronologically, this literary time capsule displays the full extent of Bellowâ€™s nonfiction, including criticism, interviews, speeches, and other reflections, tracing his career from his initial success as a novelist until the end of his life. Bringing together six classic pieces with an abundance of previously uncollected material, There Is Simply Too Much to Think About is a powerful reminder not only of Bellowâ€™s genius but also of his enduring place in the western canon and is sure to be widely reviewed and talked about for years to come.
