The Adventures of Saul Bellow

The winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature, three National Book Awards and the Pulitzer Prize, Saul Bellow transformed modern literature. He illuminated twentieth-century American life through philosophical depth and a wild sense of humor. Some of the greatest American writers alive today credit him as their main inspiration. Far from an easy hero, Bellow also offended the social sensibilities of many readers, wreaked havoc in personal relationships, and left a trail of unanswered questions in his wake. The Adventures of Saul Bellow is the first-ever documentary about him.
