Galantière
Mark I Lurie
Kirkus Reviews
A well-written, comprehensively researched account of one man with connections to key players in literature and politics throughout the 1900s. ...Lurie has produced a substantial, thoughtful biography of a man previously known only through his appearances in the papers of more famous individuals, acknowledging his contributions and placing him in historical context...
Midwest Book Review
Impressively researched, extraordinarily informative, exceptionally well written, organized and presented, " Galantière: The Lost Generation's Forgotten Man" is an especially and unreservedly recommended addition to both community and academic library 20th Century American Biography collections.
Rosanna Warren. Distinguished Service Professor, Univ. of Chicago
Galantière could have sprung full-grown from a novel by Saul Bellow: a fantastical creature whose most successful fiction was himself.
Publishers Weekly
Lurie's dutiful biography of Lewis Galantière (1895-1977), his first cousin once removed, tells a clear-cut tale of a man who crossed paths with Sherwood Anderson, Ernest Hemingway, and James Joyce, among many other literary notables, helping them in significant ways... …an appealing portrait of a man who made his own way among the literati of his day.
The Library Journal
...Lurie succeeds in constructing a thorough and well-rounded portrait that should earn its subject wider recognition —especially among readers interested in American history and diplomacy.
H. R. Stoneback. Distinguished Professor of English. SUNY and Past Pres. of the Hemingway Society
Mark Lurie's impeccably researched, and amply documented biography unearths valuable neglected details of the Hemingway- Galantière friendship. This valuable portrait of Galantière is a compelling tale, well-told for the first time.
