	Hawthorne
		William Ticknor then offered the Hawthorne biography for a lower price than Bartlett's, advertised it nationally, and denigrated Bartlett's work in letters to booksellers.
		Ticknor's efforts paid off, for Hawthorne's work attracted a buzz of notoriety while Bartlett's work drew few reviews and remains little more than a footnote in political history.
		Ticknor and Fields' 1856 biography of John Fremont--written, ironically, by Hawthorne's Custom House enemy Charles Upham--constituted 25% of the firm's annual print output, becoming their most profitable work for 1856.

	Ticknor: A Novel by Sheila Heti \| PopMatters Book Review
		The story, and I use that term fairly loosely, is centered on George Ticknor and William Prescott, two American writers and historians, and is a fictitious re-imagining of their relationship.
		I don't want to go too harsh on Heti as word in the rumour mill suggests that she is something of a rarity in writing circles for someone welding her level of power and influence: she's reportedly a really nice person, and, believe me, that's something worthy of respect.
		Ticknor might not entirely be a wash-out, but for someone of Heti's supposed reputation, readers may be well advised to side-step this one and stick with the historical accounts instead.

		Prescott frequently invites Ticknor to his many dinner parties, but Ticknor strongly suspects his friend is only humouring him—that in fact, Prescott might not actually like him at all and regards him as nothing more than a failed writer, a failed socialite and a generally uninteresting person.
		She builds the book around a typically awkward social dilemma for Ticknor: he is bringing a pie to a dinner party at Prescott’s house, but has become soaked by the pouring rain, which has also ruined the pie.
		The most infuriating passages are Ticknor’s letters to various vaguely defined correspondents, in which he repeats himself constantly, restating the same ideas in different words (or sometimes the same words in a slightly different order).

	House of Anansi Press : titles
		Ticknor is the highly anticipated first novel by Sheila Heti, the author of the acclaimed story collection The Middle Stories.
		Ticknor's life has been reduced to a series of awkward meetings, failed dinner parties, and other misfortunes he is loath to own up to.
		Situated in the complicated and contradictory moments that make friendships both tenuous and difficult to relinquish, Ticknor's fixated thoughts about his and Prescott's dissimilar fates lead him through a litany of rationalizations and recriminations, a psychological maze that is paranoid and harrowing as well as ludicrous and absurd.

		"Ticknor seems at first little more than a darkly amusing monologue, but it is, in the end, a work brilliantly crafted to deliver its revelations and redemptions.
		On a cold, rainy night, an aging bachelor named George Ticknor prepares to visit his childhood friend Prescott, now one of the leading intellectual lights of their generation.
		Distantly inspired by the real-life friendship between the great historian William Hickling Prescott and his biographer, Ticknor is a witty, fantastical study in resentment.

		Samuel Williams, of Philadelphia,—a man true and faithful to his race, and courageous in the highest degree,—came to Christiana, travelling most of the way in company with the very men whom Gorsuch had employed to drag into slavery four as good men as ever trod the earth.
		Williams listened to their conversation, and marked well their faces, and, being fully satisfied by their awkward movements that they were heavily armed, managed to slip out of the cars at the village of Downington unobserved, and proceeded to Penningtonville, where he encountered Kline, who had started several hours in advance of the others.
		Williams spread through the vicinity like a fire in the prairies; and when I went home from my work in the evening, I found Pinckney (whom I should have said before was my brother-in-law), Abraham Johnson, Samuel Thompson, and Joshua Kite at my house, all of them excited about the rumor.

		Prescott's success as a historian, husband, and charming paragon of the Boston social set, sharpens Ticknor's sense of inferiority.
		As Heti notes, she has based this slender, first-person work on American George Ticknor's mid-19th-century biography of historian William Hickling Prescott, but the lonely, querulous voice of her invented George is all her own.
