The Library of America

New collections of Bernard Malamud’s work released

May 28, 2014 - Jane Robbins Mize

Cover of "Malamud: Novels and Stories of the 1960s."

Novelist Bernard Malamud was one of the most significant Jewish American writers of the twentieth century, and this year, to honor and celebrate his life and work, The Library of America has released two collections of Malamud’s fiction: Novels and Stories of the 1940s & 50s and Novels and Stories of the 1960s. A third collection is forthcoming.

The Ransom Center is home to an important archive of Malamud’s work

Born in Brooklyn on April 26, 1914, to Russian Jewish immigrants, Malamud earned his Master’s degree from Columbia University and taught writing at Oregon State University and Bennington College. His first novel, The Natural (1952), was adapted into a film starring Robert Redford in 1984. His fourth novel, The Fixer, won both the National Book Award and Pulitzer Prize in 1966. Malamud also published a total of six other novels and 65 short stories throughout his career.

Malamud’s archive includes correspondence, articles, essays, notebooks, manuscripts, interviews, and more.
