Joseph Mitchell was a legendary New Yorker writer and the author
of the national bestseller Up in the Old Hotel, in which these two
pieces appeared. What Joseph Mitchell wrote about, principally, was
New York. In Joe Gould, Mitchell found the perfect subject. And Joe
Gould''s Secret has become a legendary piece of New York
history.
Joe Gould may have been the quintessential Greenwich Village
bohemian. In 1916, he left behind patrician roots for a scrappy,
hand-to-mouth existence: he wore ragtag clothes, slept in Bowery
flophouses, and mooched food, drinks, and money off of friends and
strangers. Thus he was able to devote his energies to writing "An
Oral History of Our Time," which Gould said would constitute "the
informal history of the shirt-sleeved multitude." But when Joe
Gould died in 1957, the manuscript could not be found. Where had he
hidden it? This is Joe Gould''s Secret.
"[Mitchell is] one of our finest journalists."--Dawn Powell, The
Washington Post
"What people say is history--Joe Gould was right about that-- and
history, when recorded by Mitchell, is literature."--The New
Criterion
