Cynthia Ozick's story "Puttermesser Paired" has as its intertext the love relations of a famous 19th-century novelist. In this scene Rupert Rabeeno is reading to his wife-to-be, Ruth Puttermesser:
"She watched him reconstruct Johnny Cross. Johnny Cross was anyhow a puzzlement. No one knew him really. He was expected to be 'deep' and he wasn't. He was handsome and genial and athletic and rich. He was no intellectual, though he worked at it gamely, the same plucky way he chopped down a clump of trees or devotedly smacked at a tennis ball. He was a tremendous swimmer. He wasn't even remotely a writer, but he did turn out one astonishing book -- astonishingly chiefly because Johnny Cross had written it: '__________'s Life.' The title was as obvious and direct as he was. He plugged away at it after she died: it was a genuflection."
Who was the subject of Cross' biography, and his one-time wife?

"Proof of the whole book came. It reads better than I expected. Not a bit sensational, but simple and true, for we really lived most of it, and if it succeeds that will be the reason of it. Mr. Niles likes it better now, and says some girls who have read the manuscript say it is 'splendid!' As it is for them, they are the best critics, so I should be satisified."
Who wrote this -- and about what book?
(Hint: The Mr. Niles mentioned in the quote is a publisher.)
