The Company They Kept

$4.99

Now in paperback Many of the illustrious contributors to *The New York Review of Books* have had deep and abiding relationships–both personal and intellectual–with other poets, writers, artists, composers, and scientists of equal stature. *The Company They Kept* is a collection of twenty-seven accounts of these varied friendships–most of them undeniably fraught with “idiosyncratic complexities.” From Anna Akhmatova’s dreamlike description of wandering through Paris with the impoverished Modigliani to Joseph Brodsky’s account of his first meeting with Isaiah Berlin (from which he returned to report, around the kitchen table, to Stephen Spender and W. H. Auden), these pieces are tantalizing glimpses into the lives of those who have made *The New York Review of Books* into what *Esquire* magazine calls “the premier literary-intellectual magazine in the English language.”
