2004Best.-Nr. 89144Arlington VA: Paycock Press 2004. First Edition stated presumed first printing. Trade paperback. Very good. Molly Bennett Cover photograph. 199 1 pages. A first and posthumous collection of short stories by Joyce Renwick 1942-1995. Foreword by Richard Bausch. Joyce Louise Titus was born in Woodbury New Jersey. Before she was able to read Joyce was fascinated with words on a printed page—as a child she lay on the hallway floor copying newspaper headlines word for word. At the age of twelve she started writing poetry and short stories in a daily journal which she kept until her death on August 14 1995. She first published at the age of thirteen having won first place in a poetry contest. Her stories appeared in the Sewanee Review Southern Review Michigan Quarterly Review and the Best American Short Stories. This is the first published collection of her work. The contents include Crispy Critters The Goat The Beast Cuatro Casas Sportin' Life In Praise of What Persists Cane The Man Who Loved Chekhov Where Are you Now Ella WadeTurtle Soup Skin and Animal Mischef. Derived from a review of Joyce Renwick's In Praise of What Persists by Gary Garth McCann. Joyce Renwick died in a car accident in Iowa in August 1995 shortly after she’d edited a novel manuscript for me. I never met her only spoke to her over the phone from DC and didn’t learn of her death until years later when I tried to get in touch about another manuscript. With a BA that covered both nursing and English Renwick studied for a Masters in English at Middlebury College and paid her tuition for seven summers at the Bread Loaf Writing Conference by serving as the nurse on call twenty-four hours a day reflected in the story “The Man Who Loved Chekhov”. She received her MFA from the University of Iowa’s Writer’s Workshop and buried her nursing shoes in her backyard. Richard Bausch writes of their college friendship he an obsessed young father worrying about his own health Joyce a nurse eventually sharing her frights. Besides surfing in Baja this collection of Renwick’s fiction includes other settings and topics as diverse and exotic as turtle hunting on a farmstead the nursing nightshift in an emergency room and an old seaman living out his days in Savannah poverty becoming the victim of a hate crime against the aged while mentally reliving life at sea.
