Here But Not Here: My Life with William Shawn and the New Yorkerby Lillian Ross
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:"An enduring love, however startling or unconventional, feels unalterable, predestined, compelling, and intrinsically normal to the couple immersed in it, so I would have to say that I had an intrinsically normal life for over four decades with William Shawn".<P>Shawn was married, yet Ross and Shawn created a home together a dozen blocks south of the Shawns' apartment, raised a child, and lived with discretion. Their lives intertwined from the 1950s until Shawn's death in 1992. Ross describes how they met and the intense connection between them; how Shawn worked with the best writers of the period; how, to escape their developing liaison, Ross moved to Hollywood — only to return to New York and to the relationship. The book is a gem, an exquisitely told real-life story more potent than fiction. Book News Annotation:Paper edition reprint of a 1998 work (Random House) in which writer
Ross recounts her long-term affair with long-time New Yorker
editor, William Shawn. Here she supplies a new preface.
