The Story of My Father: A Memoir
Alfred A. Knopf 2003. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Signed by author. First edition. Signed by author without inscription. A very nice copy. 2003 Hard Cover. We have more books available by this author!. 173 pp. In the fall of 1988 Sue Miller found herself caring for her father as he slipped into the grasp of Alzheimer's disease. She was she claims perhaps the least constitutionally suited of all her siblings to be in the role in which she suddenly found herself and in The Story of My Father she grapples with the haunting memories of those final months and the larger narrative of her father's life. With compassion self-scrutiny and an urgency born of her own yearning to rescue her father's memory from the disorder and oblivion that marked his dying and death Sue Miller takes us on an intensely personal journey that becomes by virtue of her enormous gifts of observation perception and literary precision a universal story of fathers and daughters. James Nichols was a fourth-generation minister a retired professor from Princeton Theological Seminary. Sue Miller brings her father brilliantly to life in these pages-his religious faith his endless patience with his children his gaiety and willingness to delight in the ridiculous his singular gifts as a listener and the rituals of church life that stayed with him through his final days. She recalls the bitter irony of watching him a church historian wrestle with a disease that inexorably lays waste to notions of time history and meaning. She recounts her struggle with doctors her deep ambivalence about many of her own choices and the difficulty of finding continually the humane and moral response to a disease whose special cruelty it is to dissolve particularities and to diminish in so many ways the humanity of those it strikes. She reflects unforgettably on the variable nature of memory the paradox of trying to weave a truthful narrative from the threads of a dissolving life. And she offers stunning insight into her own life as both a daughter and a writer two roles that swell together here in a poignant meditation on the consolations of storytelling. With the care restraint and consummate skill that define her beloved and best-selling fiction Sue Miller now gives us a rigorous compassionate inventory of two lives in a memoir destined to offer comfort to all sons and daughters struggling-as we all eventually must-to make peace with their fathers and with themselves.

Alfred A. Knopf 2001. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Signed by author. First edition. Signed by author without inscription. A very nice copy. 2001 Hard Cover. We have more books available by this author!. 275 pp. Maine 1919. Georgia Rice who has cared for her father and two siblings since her mother's death is diagnosed at nineteen with tuberculosis and sent away to a sanitarium. Freed from the burdens of care-taking she discovers a nearly lost world of youth and possibility and meets the doomed young man who will become her lover. Vermont the present. On the heels of a divorce Catherine Hubbard Georgia's granddaughter takes up residence in Georgia's old house. Sorting through her own affairs Cath stumbles upon the true story of Georgia's life and marriage and of the misunderstanding upon which she built a lasting love. With the tales of these two women--one a country doctor's wife with a haunting past the other a twice-divorced San Francisco schoolteacher casting about at midlife for answers to her future--Miller offers us a novel of astonishing richness and emotional depth. Linked by bitter disappointments compromise and powerful grace the lives of Georgia and Cath begin to seem remarkably similar despite their distinctly different times: two young girls generations apart motherless at nearly the same age thrust into early adulthood struggling with confusing bonds of attachment and guilt; both of them in marriages that are not what they seem forced to make choices that call into question the very nature of intimacy faithfulness betrayal and love. Marvelously written expertly told The World Below captures the shadowy half-truths of the visible world and the beauty and sorrow submerged beneath the surfaces of our lives--the lost world of the past our lost hopes for the future. A tour de force from one of our most beloved storytellers. Alfred A. Knopf hardcover books

When I Was Gone: A Novel
Alfred A. Knopf 1999. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Signed by author. First edition. Signed by author without inscription. Jacket spine head very lightly bumped. 1999 Hard Cover. We have more books available by this author!. 265 pp. In the summer of 1968 Jo Becker ran out on the marriage and the life her parents wanted for her and escaped--for one beautiful idyllic year--into a life that was bohemian and romantic living under an assumed name in a rambling group house in Cambridge. It was a time of limitless possibility but it ended in a single instant when Jo returned home one night to find her best friend lying dead in a pool of blood on the living room floor. Now Jo has everything she's ever wanted: a veterinary practice she loves a devoted husband three grown daughters a beautiful Massachusetts farmhouse. And if occasionally she feels a stranger to herself and wonders what happened to the freedom she once felt or how she came to be the wife mother and doctor her neighbors know and trust--if at times she feels as if her whole life is vanishing behind her as she's living it--she need only look at her daughters or her husband Daniel to recall the satisfactions of family and community and marriage. But when an old housemate settles in her small town the fabric of Jo's life begins to unravel: seduced again by the enticing possibility of another self and another life she begins a dangerous flirtation that returns her to the darkest moment of her past and imperils all she loves. While I Was Gone is an exquisitely suspenseful novel about how quickly and casually a marriage can be destroyed how a good wife can find herself placing all she holds dear at risk. In expert strokes Sue Miller captures the precariousness of even the strongest ties the ease with which we abandon each other and our need to be forgiven. An extraordinary book her best from a beloved American writer. Alfred A. Knopf hardcover books
