内容简介:
The Memory of All That is Katharine Weber’s memoir of her
extraordinary family.
Her maternal grandmother, Kay Swift, was known both for her own
music (she was the first woman to compose the score to a hit
Broadway show, Fine and Dandy) and for her ten-year romance with
George Gershwin. Their love affair began during Swift’s marriage to
James Paul Warburg, the multitalented banker and economist who
advised (and feuded with) FDR. Weber creates an intriguing and
intimate group portrait of the renowned Warburg family, from her
great-great-uncle, the eccentric art historian Aby Warburg, whose
madness inspired modern theories of iconography, to her
great-grandfather Paul M. Warburg, the architect of the Federal
Reserve System whose unheeded warnings about the stock-market crash
of 1929 made him “the Cassandra of Wall Street.”
As she throws new light on her beloved grandmother’s life and
many amours, Weber also considers the role the psychoanalyst
Gregory Zilboorg played in her family history, along with the ways
the Warburg family has been as celebrated for its accomplishments
as it has been vilified over the years by countless conspiracy
theorists (from Henry Ford to Louis Farrakhan), who labeled Paul
Warburg the ringleader of the so-called international Jewish
banking conspiracy.
Her mother, Andrea Swift Warburg, married Sidney Kaufman, but
their unlikely union, Weber believes, was a direct consequence of
George Gershwin’s looming presence in the Warburg family. A
notorious womanizer, Weber’s father was a peripatetic filmmaker who
made propaganda and training films for the OSS during World War II
before producing the first movie with smells, the regrettable flop
that was AromaRama. He was as much an enigma to his daughter as he
was to the FBI, which had him under surveillance for more than
forty years, and even noted Katharine’s birth in a memo to J. Edgar
Hoover.
Colorful, evocative, insightful, and very funny, The Memory of
All That is an enthralling look at a tremendously influential—and
highly eccentric—family, as well as a consideration of how their
stories, with their myriad layers of truth and fiction, have both
provoked and influenced one of our most prodigiously gifted
writers.
