Offering readers insight and wisdom as it sparks their own memories of remarkable people in their lives, Family and Friends chronicles the personal relationships of some of America's best-loved writers. Its contributors include: Joyce Carol Oates, Richard Ford, John McPhee, B. J. Nelson, Judy Ruiz, Raymond Carver, Deborah Tannen, Hilary Koski, Phillip Richards, Jack Cady, Julene Bair, Bob Cowser, Jr., Alice Hoffman, Richard Shelton, Daniel Stolar, Phillip Lopate, Enid Baron, Rebecca McClanahan, Alec Wilkinson, and Lee Gutkind. More than just stories of personal interaction, Family and Friends not only allows readers a glimpse at the people who have defined other lives but helps us to remember the extraordinary people who have sculpted ours. Gutkind (English, Univ. of Pittsburgh) is the editor of Creative Nonfiction, a journal espousing a genre whereby techniques for writing fiction are adapted for narrating dramatic true stories. The concept is reminiscent of the new journalism advocated several decades ago by Tom Wolfe et al. This collection consists of 20 contemporary essays about relationships, frequently rooted in memories of families and friends, which are, according to the editor, predominant shaping forces and lifelong influences. Noteworthy contributions include B.J. Nelson's account of assisting his mother's suicide, Alice Hoffman's recitation of simple but profound truths couched in her grandmother's humor, and Deborah Tannen's poignant reminiscences of her adored father. Each writer's style is unique and the collection provides a rich variety of compelling stories. Recommended for public and academic libraries. Denise J.
