Hothouse: The Art of Survival and the Survival of Art at America's Most Celebrated Publishing House, Farrar, Straus, and Giroux

Farrar, Straus & Giroux, or FSG, is like the rockstar of publishing houses. They've got a lineup with twenty-five Nobel Prize winners and authors like Tom Wolfe, Joan Didion, Philip Roth, and Jonathan Franzen. It's not just a publishing house; it's a cultural icon, as important an icon to the Big Apple as The New York Times. But don't think of FSG as some stuffy, high-and-mighty place: there's a wild backstory here that's just as captivating as the novels they churn out. Hothouse takes us on a journey through the times and the city that brought FSG to life, at last telling the untold story.
