Soft Spring Night in Shillington (autographed)

1 review
John Updike

Lord John Press, 1986

Wonderfully crafted recollections of Updike's childhood
I first read this long short story (41 pages) in SELF-CONSCIOUSNESS:MEMOIRS published by Knopf in 1989. It is among my favorite short stories.

Lord John Press, 1987

Excellent.
Joyce Carol Oates, The Time Traveler (Dutton, 1990) As I've said, the defining feature of a work by Joyce Carol Oates (if there is a single defining feature) is its darkness, its relentless feeling of ominousness. Imagine my surprise, then, to come across the second section of The Time Traveler, which consists partially of ekphrastic poetry (poetry inspired by paintings or other works of art in a ...

Michael Dorris, Louise Erdrich

Lord John Press, 1991

a little gem of a travel memoir
"Route Two" is a slim little volume that is only 34 pages long. It was written by the then husband and wife team of Michael Dorris ("A Yellow Raft in Blue Water") and Louise Erdrich ("Love Medicine"). "Route Two" is a travel memoir of their trip west from New Hampshire to Washington along Route Two. The insides of the book covers have a map of the United States with the path of their trip ...
