This comprehensive biography of prolific critic, essayist, historian, and novelist Edmund Wilson (1895-1972) posits, quite successfully, that the subject lived a life as romantic and chaotic as his friend F. Scott Fitzgerald's. Wilson suffered a nervous breakdown and the tragic death of his second wife (he was married four times, among them, Mary McCarthy), had affairs with numerous beautiful women, including Edna St. Vincent Millay, and was friend to literary giants such as John Dos Passos, Vladimir Nabakov, and W.H. Auden.
