Martin Bauman; Or, a Sure Thing Paperback - 2001
by David Leavitt
Leavitt's sharp novel is a multilayered dissection of literary and sexual mores in the get-ahead 80s. Talented freshman Martin Bauman, 19, wins a place under the tutelage of the legendary Stanley Flint, a man who makes or breaks careers with the flick of a weary hand.
Summary
David Leavitt’s deliciously sharp novel is a multilayered dissection of literary and sexual mores in the get-ahead eighties, when outrageous success lay seductively within reach of any young writer ambitious enough to grab it. Martin Bauman nineteen, talented, and insecure is enrolled at a prestigious college and wins a place under the tutelage of the legendary Stanley Flint, a man who makes or breaks careers with the flick of a weary hand. An irresistibly entertaining epic, erotic, honest, and funny, Martin Bauman draws one character so masterfully that this character will stick in the reader’s mind as strongly as Magwitch or Harry Lime” (Philadelphia Inquirer).
First line
I FIRST MET Stanley Flint in the winter of 1980, when I was nineteen.
