(starred review) "Enchanting prose and transcendent vision." (starred review) "[A] lovely elliptical memoir of family and loss....[A] beautiful bouquet of a book." Publisher's notePrompted by her mother's death, the author of A Romantic Education reassesses her Midwestern youth as the daughter of a debonair, Czech florist father and an Irish mother with a talent as a storyteller, detailing life during the postwar years and the turbulent sixties with ordinary people who had survived the Depression determined to build a better life for themselves and others. AnnotationAward-winning poet and memoirist Patricia Hampl returns to the topic of her parents and with a gimlet-eye examines the meaning of their modest lives and their unromantic deaths.
