Home: American Writers Remember Rooms of Their Own Paperback - 1996
by Sharon Sloan Fiffer (Editor); Steven Fiffer (Editor)
In Home, 18 contemporary writers remember rooms where they have lived, now live, or, in one case, hilariously imagine. Contributors include Lynda Barry, Jane Smiley, Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Mona Simpson, Bailey White, and many others. A portion of the editors' proceeds will go to organizations which help the homeless.
From the jacket flap
In Home, eighteen of our finest writers evoke different rooms--from their pasts, their present, or simply their imaginations--in order to investigate the ways in which homes contain our lives. The results are touching, provocative, and sometimes hilarious. And since a portion of the editors' proceeds will go to organizations that help the homeless, Home is really where the heart is. Contributors include: Lynda Barry, Richard Bausch, Tony Earley, James Finn Garner, Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Allan Gurganus, Colin Harrison, Kathryn Harrison, Gish Jen, Karen Karbo, Alex Kotlowitz, Clint McCown, Susan Power, Esmeralda Santiago, Mona Simpson, Jane Smiley, Sallie Tisdale, and Bailey White.
"Unforgettable...These pages are filled with the kind of details that etch a childhood place into the deep recesses of memory, that distinguish the sensual life of one family from another."--Los Angeles Times Book Review
