New York Days

In New York Days, the long-awaited sequel to the prize-winning North Toward Home, Willie Morris recalls his triumphant, exciting, and ultimately devastating years as the youngest ever editor-in-chief of Harper's, America's oldest magazine, when he was at the center of the nation's stunning cosmos of writing, publishing, politics, and the arts.

Willie Morris graduated from the University of Texas and was a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford University. He is the author of several previous books, including North Toward Home, the precursor to New York Days, and the winner of the Houghton Mifflin Literary Fellowship. Mr. Morris now lives in Jackson, Mississippi.
