125 Years of The New York Times Book Review
History was often made in our pages. Here’s a timeline of some of the most significant moments in the Book Review’s 125 years.
1918 To illustrate the 1,562 books featured in spring publishing catalogues, the early Book Review employed an infographic.
“A comic book for lovers of words!”
2006 At the publication of “Fun Home” — a graphic memoir that would later become the basis of a Tony Award-winning musical — our reviewer wrote, “If the theoretical value of a picture is still holding steady at a thousand words, then Alison Bechdel's slim yet Proustian graphic memoir, ‘Fun Home,’ must be the most ingeniously compact, hyper-verbose example of autobiography to have been produced.”
2010 Mark Twain’s autobiography was released 100 years after his death, just as he requested.
2012 Robert Caro, who has made the study of political power his life’s work, began his huge, multi-volume biography of the 36th president, Lyndon Johnson, in 1982 — and three decades later, Bill Clinton, the 42nd president reviewed the fourth installment for us, writing: “ Robert Caro has once again done America a great service.”
“Bob Dylan Wins Nobel Prize, Redefining Boundaries of Literature”
2016 Back in 1971, the Book Review declared that “Dylan is not a literary figure. Literature comes in books, and Dylan does not intend his most important work to be read.”
