Product Information
At the time of his death in 1998, Alfred Kazin was considered one of the most influential intellectuals of postwar America. What is less well known is that Kazin had been contributing almost daily to an extensive private journal, which arguably contains some of his best writing. These journals collectively tell the story of his journey from Brooklyn's Brownsville neighborhood to his position as a dominant figure in twentieth-century cultural life.To Kazin, the daily entry was a psychological and spiritual act. To read through these entries is to reexperience history as a series of daily discoveries by an alert, adventurous, if often mercurial intelligence. It is also to encounter an array of interesting and notable personalities. Sketches of friends, mistresses, family figures, and other intellectuals are woven in with commentary on Kazin's childhood, early religious interests, problems with parents, bouts of loneliness, dealings with publishers, and thoughts on the Holocaust. The journals also highlight his engagement with the political and cultural debates of the decades through which he lived. He wrestles with communism, cultural nationalism, liberalism, existentialism, Israel, modernism, and much more.Judiciously selected and edited by acclaimed Kazin biographer Richard Cook, this collection provides the public with access to these previously unavailable writings and, in doing so, offers a fascinating social, historical, literary, and cultural record.

Reviews
". . . filled with expression of direct experience of life by a keen observer of much of the twentieth century."Esther Nussbaum, Jewish Book World, "This is a remarkable book, easily one of the great diaries and moral documents of the past American century."-Dwight Garner, New York Times, "Richly unmediated expressiveness . . . a remarkable demonstration of how good writing struggles to emerge from the inner chaos with which we all live and that only a writer as talented as Alfred Kazin can bring to its knees."-Vivian Gornick, Boston Review, "[Kazin's] deepest work . . . The journals'' overwhelming note is passion. Kazin wrote with his whole being, from a ferocious intensity of hunger and joy."-William Deresiewicz, Slate, "[This] richly, intimately detailed and meticulously kept journal, full of searing insights, punishingly honest confessions, acerbic assessments of others, and golden nuggets of timeless wisdom . . . serve[s] us as Kazin's autobiography even better than do his three volumes of memoir."-Gerald Sorin, Haaretz, "The book''s informative scholarly apparatus-particularly the explanatory footnotes-provides excellent guidance to Kazin''s references and relationships. This noteworthy book is vital for understanding this eminent literary critic. Highly recommended."-S.L. Kremer, Choice, "[Kazin's] deepest work . . . The journals' overwhelming note is passion. Kazin wrote with his whole being, from a ferocious intensity of hunger and joy."-William Deresiewicz, Slate, "A monumental offering from one of the greatest and most challenging-and often underrated-literary minds of the 20th century . . . As essential as it is, perhaps, overdue."-Jeff Simon, Buffalo News, "[F]illed with expression of direct experience of life by a keen observer of much of the twentieth century."-Esther Nussbaum, Jewish Book World, "Kazin's [journals], just now published by Yale University Press, may well turn out to be his greatest work."-Mark Shechner, Tablet Magazine, "With the publication of Alfred Kazin's Journals , this Brooklyn-born son of Jewish immigrants is poised to join the literary giants who inspired him. . . . Kazin comes vibrantly alive in the journals."-Chris Waddington, New Orleans Times-Picayune, " Alfred Kazin's Journals is a profound and exciting book, more so even than the best of the dozen works of criticism and autobiography that he published during his lifetime. . . . Some of Kazin's journals reveal only their author's private darkness, but far more of them open onto vistas of literature and history illuminated by his intelligent excitement."-Edward Mendelson, The New York Review of Books, "The extraordinary journals of Alfred Kazin . . . almost certainly rank with [Edmund] Wilson's as the most important document of their kind in twentieth-century American literature."Sean Wilentz, Princeton University, "[A] robust and enveloping selected volume, from which the intensity of Kazin's engagement with life beams forth . . . . Frank about sex, scathing in his portrayal of his peers, prescient about world events, and passionate about literature."-Donna Seaman, Booklist, "With the publication of Alfred Kazin's Journals , this Brooklyn-born son of Jewish immigrants is poised to join the literary giants who inspired him. . . . Kazin comes vibrantly alive in the journals."Chris Waddington, New Orleans Times-Picayune, "A profound and exciting book, more so even than the best of the dozen works of criticism and autobiography that [Kazin] published during his lifetime."-Edward Mendelson, New York Review of Books, " Alfred Kazin''s Journals is a profound and exciting book, more so even than the best of the dozen works of criticism and autobiography that he published during his lifetime. . . . Some of Kazin''s journals reveal only their author''s private darkness, but far more of them open onto vistas of literature and history illuminated by his intelligent excitement."-Edward Mendelson, The New York Review of Books, "The book's informative scholarly apparatus-particularly the explanatory footnotes-provides excellent guidance to Kazin's references and relationships. This noteworthy book is vital for understanding this eminent literary critic. Highly recommended."-S.L. Kremer, Choice
