The Strange Death of American Publishing With Adam Bellow

The storied book editor joins Liel to discuss how and why American publishers became partisan propagandists

November 14, 2024

Once upon a time, American publishing houses were paragons of excellence, championing writers like Cynthia Ozick or Saul Bellow and helping to create a robust culture. These days, however, the industry has been hijacked by inflamed activists who are more interested in banning books than publishing them, and who are especially keen to target Jewish writers, editors, and colleagues. Liel is joined by editor and publisher Adam Bellow to discuss how book publishing descended into madness, and what might yet be done to save it.
