A new collection of immersive essays from the most acclaimed editor of the second half of the twentieth century This new collection from the legendary editor Robert Gottlieb features twenty or so pieces he’s written mostly for The New York Review of Books, ranging from reconsiderations of American writers such as Dorothy Parker, Thornton Wilder, Thomas Wolfe (“genius”), and James Jones, to Leonard Bernstein, Lorenz Hart, Lady Diana Cooper (“the most beautiful girl in the world”), the actor-assassin John Wilkes Booth, the scandalous movie star Mary Astor, and not-yet president Donald Trump. The writings compiled here are as various as they are provocative: an extended probe into the world of post-death experiences; a sharp look at the biopics of transcendent figures such as Shakespeare, Molière, and Austen; a soap opera-ish movie account of an alleged affair between Chanel and Stravinsky; and a copious sampling of the dance reviews he’s been writing for The New York Observer for close to twenty years. A worthy successor to his expansive 2011 collection, Lives and Letters, and his admired 2016 memoir, Avid Reader, Near-Death Experiences displays the same insight and intellectual curiosity that have made Gottlieb, in the words of The New York Times’s Dwight Garner, “the most acclaimed editor of the second half of the twentieth century.”

Excited guests at Haversham House count down the final minutes of 1812 while the Earl of Edgewood, a confirmed bachelor, can hardly wait to trade the festivities for a hot bath and a snifter of cognac. He’s the only person to notice when a young lady slips out into the frigid night—and when she fails to return, it’s up to him to save her from the deadly cold. Henrianna Barbour, escaping from an abusive stepfather, finds Edgewood, then loses him to Napoleon's machinations. As a spy for the British Crown, she becomes Madame Rose du Bois, mistress to a top French general, scandalizing and titillating Paris society…until love demands a different kind of truth.
