Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: As New. 1st Edition. As new condition color illustrated stiff softcover wraps. Includes Praise for The Christmas Letters. "The lives of three generations of women are woven together in this classic story of mothers, daughters, and family traditions. It all begins with Birdie Pickett's first Christmas letter in 1944. A lonely young war bride, Birdie is far from home and taking care of a new baby while her husband is fighting overseas. At Christmastime, she writes home to her family about the joys and sorrows of her new life, and - being a wonderful cook - includes a recipe. As her life changes and her children grow up, Birdie continues to write gossipy letters to her family and friends every holiday season. Birdie's daughter, Mary, takes on the Christmas letter tradition - recipes and all - when she leaves college in the 1960s to start a family of her own. Like her mother, she goes from poverty to prosperity, but she loses herself - and her marriage - along the way. Finally, in the 1990s, Mary's grown daughter, Melanie, pours over the letters and lives of the women who came before her, and writes her first Christmas letter. These women are storytellers at heart, whose musings on love and marriage are both insightful and sassy. In Lee Smith's skillful hands, The Christmas Letters is a delightful portrait of the ever evolving American family." - from the inner front and rear extended cover flaps "Bless Lee Smith's heart!.Once again, she has crafted a sparkling little gem of a story brimming with wit, charm, heartbreak and even, this time, recipes." - Chicago Tribune. "A Perfect book to read and share, especially during this holiday season." - Richmond Times-Dispach. "A perfect heart warmer for chilly winter days and a fun stocking stuffer." - Woman's Day. "All the gladness and sadness of life are found in this compact volume.reminds us how often the ties that bind can stretch to the breaking point and that there's no better time than Christmas to mend the fraying seams." - Southern Living magazine. "Lee Smith has given her many fans a present in this delightful novella.Smith's genius shines through." - Winston-Salem Journal. "One of our most accomplished authors scores again.joys, tragedies, recipes, and reflections." - Library Journal. "Miss Smith, one of the South's treasured voices, writes plainly and touchingly of the familial triumphs, discord, heartaches, and joys that accrue to become our lives." - The Washington Times. "A delight." - Kirkus Reviews. "A sweetheart of a little book." - The Columbia (South Carolina) State.

The book and its contents are in clean, bright condition. The text pages are clean and bright. The dust jacket is crisp and clean. "Growing up in the Appalachian Mountains of southwestern Virginia, nine-year-old Lee Smith was already writing and selling, for a nickel apiece stories about her neighbors in the coal boomtown of Grundy and the nearby isolated "hollers." After spending her last two years of high school at St. Catherine's School in Richmond, Virginia, Smith enrolled at Hollins College in Roanoke. She and fellow student Annie Dillard (the well-known essayist and novelist) became go-go dancers for an all-girl rock band, the Virginia Woolfs. In 1966, her senior year at Hollins, Smith submitted an early draft of a coming-of-age novel to a Book-of-the-Month Club contest and was awarded one of twelve fellowships. Two years later, that novel, The Last Day the Dog Bushes Bloomed (Harper & Row, 1968) , became Smith's first published work of fiction. " (from Wikipedia).
