Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. From National Book Award winner Deirdre Bair, the definitive biography of Saul Steinberg, one of The New Yorker's most iconic artists.The issue date was March 29, 1976. The New Yorker cost 75 cents. And on the cover unfolded Saul Steinberg's vision of the world: New York City, the Hudson River, and then.well, it's really just a bunch of stuff you needn't concern yourself with. Steinberg's brilliant depiction of the world according to self-satisfied New Yorkers placed him squarely in the pantheon of the magazine's-and the era's-most celebrated artists.But if you look beyond the searing wit and stunning artistry, you'll find one of the most fascinating lives of the twentieth century. Born in Romania, Steinberg was educated in Milan and was already famous for his satirical drawings when World War II forced him to immigrate to the United States. On a single day, Steinberg became a US citizen, a commissioned officer in the US Navy, and a member of the OSS, assigned to spy in China, North Africa, and Italy. After the war ended, he returned to America and to his art. He quickly gained entree into influential circles that included Saul Bellow, Vladimir Nabokov, Willem de Kooning, and Le Corbusier. His wife was the artist Hedda Sterne, from whom he separated in 1960 but never divorced and with whom he remained in daily contact for the rest of his life. This conveniently freed him up to amass a coterie of young mistresses and lovers. But his truly great love was the United States, where he traveled extensively by bus, train, and car, drawing, observing, and writing.His body of work is staggering and influential in ways we may not yet even be able to fully grasp, quite possibly because there has not been a full-scale biography of him until now. Deirdre Bair had access to 177 boxes of documents and more than 400 drawings. In addition, she conducted several hundred personal interviews. Steinberg's curious talent for creating myths about himself did not make her job an easy one, but the result is a stunning achievement to admire and enjoy.

Book
Soft cover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. Special Edition. Advance reader's copy of an uncorrected proof, a Bound Galley in paperback. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in Fine condition. 700+ pages w/many illustrations & notes but no index. "In this lavishly researched, pointillistic, and revealing biography, National Book Award winning biographer Bair seeks to decode the 'pleasure and puzzle' of Steinberg's witty and profound creations and the paradoxes of his life. She finds clues to Steinberg's instantly recognizable visual lexicon in his childhood as a 'thoughtful, introspective' Jewish boy in anti-Semitic Romania. A passionate reader and 'first-class noticer,' his 'major preoccupations' then and always were 'girls and drawing,' and his approach to both was complicated and contradictory. Steinberg's nightmarish exodus from Nazi Europe was followed by a bizarre, world-roaming stint as a U.S. Navy 'psychological warfare artist.' Once established in New York, and on the pages and covers of the New Yorker, Steinberg, with his keen eye for absurdity and injustice, perpetual drive to create, 'questing intelligence,' metaphysical imagination, and sharp sense of humor, became one of the world's most industrious, successful, and conflicted artists. A self-described 'writer who draws,' he was torn between commercial and fine art, his hunger for attention and fame and his need for privacy. As Bair chronicles Steinberg's complicated marriage to painter Hedda Sterne and tragic 35-year relationship with a much younger mistress, and richly illuminates each creative leap and fall into depression, Steinberg emerges as a philosopher-cartoonist-artist of prodigious talent, vision, and duality."--Donna Seaman, Booklist. "Gripping and revelatory. There is much that is new in Bair's book, and Steinberg emerges from her account as a paradigmatic 20th-century exile and traveler, crossing and recrossing fixed boundary lines in both his life and his work. Steinberg certainly produced his share of classics, and in the process he helped pave the way for a culture of boundary-blurrers. He showed that literature can be created without using a single sentence."--Deborah Solomon, The New York Times Book Review. "With this enthralling and exhaustive biography, Deirdre Bair traces the first complete portrait of the private, astringent (and now formerly) inscrutable artist/cartoonist in a nonjudgmental manner, all the while gaping at the famous friendships, expansive career, and, most surprisingly, messy affairs that Steinberg so peripatetically and painfully inhabited. Steinberg was not only the most 'twentieth century' of twentieth century artists, but also one of the most flabbergasting."--Chris Ware. "Does his reading Huck Finn in an Italian concentration camp, his belief that Cyrillic 'looks like sneezes,' his TV commercial for Jell-O, or the hunch that Mickey Mouse was black explain Saul Steinberg? Not entirely, but Deirdre Bair does the rest, in her sensitive, stylish portrait of an American original. A rich, sparkling joy of a book."--Stacy Schiff. Pristine & massive paperback ARC w/sharp corners & crisp edges, a tight binding w/no creases in spine & no jacket as issued.
