Sutton ( Remar Sutton's Body Worry ) and freelancer Waite have compiled a mildly interesting collection of conversations they held with a wide variety of people that includes writers Kurt Vonnegut and George Plimpton but that focuses chiefly on those who are neither famous people nor authors: a cook, a student, several librarians and teachers, and a few fishermen. The chapters are arranged by such subjects as "An Early Friendship," "A Moment of Loneliness," "Falling," "Unexpected Treats" or just "Serendipity." Sutton and Waite devote longer pieces to physician Torre Andrew's portrait of his grandmother and to Methodist minister Carolyn Abram's haunting memory of the death of her two-day-old daughter. These pieces come closer to the authors' stated plan to explore the nature of communication and self-discovery. The short chapters often read like magazine interviews.

Store Description

I personally handle each book that I list and use a description that is unique to that listing. I DO NOT use generic descriptions. X-Library books always marked as such. Dust jackets will be covered with a protective (Brodart) mylar cover for their protection. I have been selling books online since 1995. I also sold books through a bookstore for 13 years. Books are well wrapped for shipping, all books shipped using a cardboard sleeve, not just a flimsy envelope. Pictures of books available upon request, don't be fooled by STOCK pictures with the book listings. Thank you for your business!
