About “Herzog”

Saul Bellow, a Nobel Prize winner, wrote a novel that presents a multifaceted portrait of a modern-day hero. The story follows a man who struggles with the complexity of existence and longs for redemption. The novel includes an introduction by Philip Roth. Bellow's work explores deep themes through the experiences of its central character.

Praise for “Herzog”

“A feast of language, situations, characters, ironies, and a controlled moral intelligence . . . Bellow’s rapport with his central character seems to me novel writing in the grand style of a Tolstoy—subjective, complete, heroic.”

— Chicago Tribune

“Herzog has the range, depth, intensity, verbal brilliance, and imaginative fullness—the mind and heart—which we may expect only of a novel that is unmistakably destined to last.”

— Newsweek
