WOLFE CHANGES PUBLISHER AFTER 40 YEARS
BONFIRE OF THE VANITIES author TOM WOLFE has ended a 40-year relationship with his publishing company, after a row over the advance for his latest novel.
Wolfe wasn’t happy with the cash sum Farrar, Straus & Giroux offered him for his new book Back to Blood - the result of disappointing sales for his last effort I Am Charlotte Simmons.
And now he has secured a new deal with Little, Brown to release Back to Blood - about "class, family, wealth, race, crime, sex, corruption and ambition".
Wolfe’s agent Lynn Nesbit tells the New York Daily News the split was "not at all acrimonious".
