Partisans: Marriage, Politics, and Betrayal Among the New York IntellectualsUniversity of Chicago Press, 10 באפר׳ 2001 - 319 עמודים Combining literary biography with astute reporting and moral insight, David Laskin shows how sex, politics, and art affected relationships among the Partisan Review writers: Mary McCarthy, Edmund Wilson, Philip Rahv, Robert Lowell, Jean Stafford, Elizabeth Hardwick, Hannah Arendt, Allen Tate, Caroline Gordon, and Diana Trilling.
