From its birth in 1925 to the early days of the Cold War, The New
Yorker slowly but surely took hold as America's most prestigious,
entertaining and informative general-interest periodical. In Cast
of Characters, Thomas Vinciguerra paints a portrait of the
magazine's cadre of charming, driven, troubled brilliant writers
and editors. Many of these characters became legends in their own
right but Vinciguerra also shows how, as a group, The New Yorker's
inner circle brought forth a profound transformation in how life
was perceived, interpreted, written about and published in America.
Cast of Characters is the most revealing and entertaining book yet
about the personalities who built what Ross called not a magazine
but a "movement".
