1996ref. 2m2571Clearwater: Pinellas County Board of County Commissioners in cooperation with Pinellas County Department of Public Affairs 1996. 1st edition. Octavo stiff pictorial wrappers spiral bound 114 pp. Photos portraits. Fine. From AUthor’s Note: These are not intended to be nor are they the definitive biographies of the Pinellas County Commissioners from 1912 to the present. The effort is to give in the lives of the Commissioners a glimpse of the history of Pinellas County as it unfolded through their lives and their efforts to bring about the growth and development of the County and its government. You may notice while reading this booklet that dates are missing for the lifespans of some of the Commissioners. Many people researched this information through newspaper clippings cemetery roles anecdotal recollections of relatives and other sources. This is as complete a record as was possible to set forth. For similar reasons not all Commissioners will have a photograph to accompany their biographies. Also as the Commissioners’ terms in office are recorded you may notice a change in the mid-1960s when terms went from being listed in odd-numbered years to even-numbered years according to state documents.

Signed by author without inscription on title page. 2005 Hard Cover. v 247 pp. For nearly two decades since the publication of her iconic first novel The Good Mother Sue Miller has distinguished herself as one of our most elegant and widely celebrated chroniclers of family life with a singular gift for laying bare the interior lives of her characters. In each of her novels Miller has written with exquisite precision about the experience of grace in daily life - the sudden epiphanic recognition of the extraordinary amid the ordinary - as well as the sharp and unexpected motions of the human heart away from it toward an unruly netherworld of upheaval and desire. But never before have Miller's powers been keener or more transfixing than they are in Lost in the Forest a novel set in the vineyards of Northern California that tells the story of a young girl who in the wake of a tragic accident seeks solace in a damaging love affair with a much older man. Eva a divorced and happily remarried mother of three runs a small bookstore in a town north of San Francisco. When her second husband John is killed in a car accident her family's fragile peace is once again overtaken by loss. Emily the eldest must grapple with newfound independence and responsibility. Theo the youngest can only begin to fathom his father's death. But for Daisy the middle child John's absence opens up a world of bewilderment exposing her at the onset of adolescence to the chaos and instability that hover just beyond the safety of parental love. In her sorrow Daisy embarks on a harrowing sexual odyssey a journey that will cast her even farther out onto the harsh promontory of adulthood and lost hope. With astonishing sensuality and immediacy Lost in the Forest moves through the most intimate realms of domestic life from grief and sex to adolescence and marriage. It is a stunning kaleidoscopic evocation of a family in crisis written with delicacy and masterful care. For her lifelong fans and those just discovering Sue Miller for the first time here is a rich and gorgeously layered tale of a family breaking apart and coming back together again: Sue Miller at her inimitable best.

Minimal wear to corners. 2003 Hard Cover. 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.
