Trilling went on to publish five books, including the best-selling \u003cem\u003eMrs. Harris: The Death of the Scarsdale Diet Doctor\u003c\/em\u003e, written when she was in her late seventies. She was also one half of one of the most famous intellectual couples in the United States.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrilling's life with Columbia University professor and literary critic Lionel Trilling was filled with secrets, struggles, and betrayals, and she endured what she called her \"own private hell\" as she fought to reconcile competing duties and impulses at home and at work. Trilling was a feminist, yet she insisted that women's liberation created unnecessary friction with men, asserting that her career ambitions should be on equal footing with caring for her child and supporting her husband. She fearlessly expressed sensitive, controversial, and moral views, and fought publicly with Lillian Hellman, among other celebrated writers and intellectuals, over politics. Trilling was an anticommunist liberal, a position often misunderstood, especially by her literary and university friends. And finally, she was among the \"New Journalists\" who transformed writing and reporting in the 1960s, making her nonfiction as imaginative in style and scope as a novel. The first biographer to mine Trilling's extensive archives, Natalie Robins tells a previously undisclosed history of an essential member of New York City culture at a time of dynamic change and intellectual relevance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Natalie Robins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0231182082\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780231182089\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Columbia University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/16\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 424\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 5.90w x 1.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/13\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2017","brand":"Natalie Robins","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46232962138367,"sku":"9780231182089","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cd3c4864-8a51-45ec-8710-1a3222c2a50c.jpg?v=1728991661","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-untold-journey-natalie-robins-9780231182089","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
