Hothouse: The Art of Survival and the Survival of Art at America's Most Celebrated Publishing House, Farrar, Straus, and Giroux by Boris Kachka
4.0
Thoroughly enjoyed this history of one of America's greatest publishing houses. A fascinating depiction of the realm of publishing and editing, the side of the literary realm that many of us often forget about, and a story about some of our country's most famous and important authors. I'm also fascinated with Robert Giroux and see him as this profoundly important figure in twentieth century American literature so reading a bit about his life and experiences was fascinating.
