Synopsis
"Bill told me I was his 'wife,"' Lillian Ross writes. "I felt I was." Ross's relationship with legendary "New Yorker" editor William Shawn began in the 1950s and lasted until Shawn's death in 1992. Ross shared a home with Shawn several blocks from his wife's house, and their intense love continued even after Ross moved to Hollywood. Ross wrote for "The New Yorker" from 1945 to 1987, and returned in the 1990s.

Publisher's Note
In this fascinating and beautiful memoir, the renowned New Yorker writer Lillian Ross tells a remarkable love story of the passionate life she shared for forty years with William Shawn, The New Yorkers famous editor."All enduring love between two people, however startling or unconventional, feels unalterable, predestined, compelling, and intrinsically normal to the couple immersed in it, so I would have to say that I had an intrinsically normal life for over four decades with William Shawn. . . . I have a lasting sense of the normalcy of it all. It was a normalcy that Bill Shawn was able to create for himself and for me against all normal odds." Shawn was married, yet Ross and Shawn created a home together a dozen blocks south of the Shawns apartment, raised a child, and lived with discretion. Their lives intertwined from the 1950s until Shawns death, in 1992. Ross describes how they met and the intense connection between them; how Shawn worked with some of the best writers of the period; how, to escape their developing liaison, Ross moved to Hollywood, and there wrote the famous pieces that became Picture, the classic story of the making of a movie--John Huston's The Red Badge of Courage--only to return to New York and to the relationship. The love of Shawn and Ross for each other made it impossible for them ever to part. ----This book is a gem, an exquisitely told real-life story more potent than fiction.

Industry reviews
"Both too quirky and too chatty; Ross is at her best when sticking to writers, writing, and Shawn's editing."
