Title: Bartleby and Me Author: Gay Talese Narrator: Mike Ortego Format: mp3 Length: 8 hrs and 45 mins Release date: 09-19-23 Ratings: 4 out of 5 stars, 11 ratings Genres: House & Home Publisher's Summary: “New York is a city of things unnoticed,” a young reporter named Gay Talese wrote sixty years ago. He would spend the rest of his legendary career defying that statement by celebrating the people most reporters overlooked, understanding that it was through these minor characters that the epic story of New York and America unfolded. Inspired by Herman Melville’s great short story “Bartleby, the Scrivener,” Talese now revisits the unforgettable “nobodies” he has profiled in his celebrated career—from the New York Times’s anonymous obituary writer to Frank Sinatra’s entourage.
