Books, Manuscripts
'A Tragic Honesty' may as easily appall as enthral with its depiction of an artist who combined creativity and self-destructiveness to such a degree. Blake Bailey keeps it interesting by tracing the myriad threads that connect Richard Yate's life and fiction and by writing highly readable prose.
