PART MEMOIR AND PART ELEGY, READING
MY FATHER IS THE STORY OF A DAUGHTER
COMING TO KNOW HER FATHER AT LAST-
A GIANT AMONG TWENTIETH-CENTURY
AMERICAN NOVELISTS AND A MAN WHOSE
DEVASTATING DEPRESSION DARKENED THE
FAMILY LANDSCAPE.
In Reading My Father, William Styron s youngest
child explores the life of a fascinating and difficult
man whose own memoir, Darkness Visible, so sear-
ingly chronicled his battle with major depression.
Alexandra Styron s parents
—
the Pulitzer Prize-winning
author
oí
Sophie s Choice and his political activist wife,
Rose
—
were, for
halfa
century, leading players on the
world s cultural stage. Alexandra was raised under
both the halo of her father s brilliance and the long
shadow of his troubled mind.
A drinker, a carouser, and above all a high priest
at the altar of fiction, Styron helped define the
concept of The Big Male Writer that gave so much
of twentieth-century American fiction a muscular,
glamorous aura. In constant pursuit of The Great
Novel, he and his work were the dominant force in
his family s life, his turbulent moods the weather in
their ecosystem.
From Styron s Tidewater, Virginia, youth and
precocious literary debut to the triumphs of his
best-known books and on through his spiral into
clinical depression, Reading My Father portrays the
epic sweep of an American artist s life, offering a ring¬
side seat on a great literary generation s friendships
and their dramas. It is also a tale of filial love, beauti¬
fully written, with humor, compassion, and grace.
ALEXANDRA STYRON,
author of the novel All the Finest Girls, is a graduate
of the MFA program at Columbia University. Her
work has appeared in The New Yorker, The New York
Times, and Real Simple, among other publications.
She lives with her husband and two children in
Brooklyn, New York.
