Hothouse: Inside Farrar, Straus and Giroux
Friday, August 02, 2013
Farrar, Straus and Giroux is arguably the most influential publishing house of the modern era—home to 25 Nobel Prize winners and generation-defining authors like T. S. Eliot, Flannery O’Connor, Susan Sontag, Tom Wolfe, Joan Didion, Philip Roth, and Jonathan Franzen. Boris Kachka reveals the era and the city that built FSG through the stories of two men: founder-owner Roger Straus and his utter opposite, the reticent, closeted editor Robert Giroux. In Hothouse: The Art of Survival and the Survival of Art at America’s Most Celebrated Publishing House, Farrar, Straus and Giroux, Kachka pulls back the curtain to expose how elite publishing works today.
