During his lifetime, William Gaddis (1922-1998) evaded biographical questions, never read from his work publicly, and didn't allow his photograph to appear on his books. By illustrating the interconnectedness of Gaddis's life and work, Tabbi demystifies the "difficult author” and shows a writer who was as attuned as any to the way Americans talk, and who chronicled the gradual commodification of artistic endeavor.
