Saul Bellow: Novels 1984-2000 (LOA #260): What Kind of Day Did You Have? / More Die of Heartbreak / A Theft / The Bellarosa Connection / The Actual / ... (Library of America Saul Bellow Edition)

For his centennial (June 10, 2015), The Library of America and editor James Wood present the final volume in the definitive edition of Saul Bellowâ€™s complete novels. In the last stage of his unparalleled careerâ€”which included winning the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1976â€”Saul Bellow remained an uproarious comic storyteller, a provocative thinker deeply engaged with the intellectual cross-currents of his time, and a magnificent prose stylist. Gathered here are four shorter worksâ€”What Kind of Day Did You Have? (1984), A Theft (1989), The Bellarosa Connection (1989), and The Actual (1997)â€”along with More Die of Heartbreak (1987), a novel that â€œchanges the way you see everythingâ€ (Martin Amis), and Bellowâ€™s extraordinary valedictory, Ravelstein (2000), about a professor of political philosophy made suddenly famous by an unlikely bestseller. Brimming with Bellowâ€™s characteristic wit and ebullience, but imbued with the awareness of approaching death, Bellowâ€™s final book is an unforgettable meditation on love and friendship, eros and mortality.
