Omschrijving
Baker's startlingly honest, very funny account of his obsession with John Updike, part of a stunning redesign of Baker's Granta backlist.
Nicholson Baker is a canny modern writer. He is building a sharp and singular library of the interior life and U and I is a decisive and welcome addition
An intense, touchy, rivalrous extended essay on his obsession with John Updike ... neither Updike nor anyone else could write a book quite like this
A subtle, funny and, in its way, profoundly serious study of the means by which art and artists are made
One of the most entertaining and penetrating studies of literary admiration since Vladimir Nabokov's Pale Fire
A meditation on how we remember, and how we celebrate, writers and writing.
Ridiculously talented
An offbeat homage and confession of authorial anxiety
NICHOLSON BAKER was born in New York in 1957. He is the author of eight novels, including The Mezzanine, Vox and Room Temperature (all Granta Books), and five non-fiction works, including U & I (also Granta) and Double Fold: Libraries and the Assault on Paper, for which he won the 2001 National Book Critics Circle Award.
