These Precious Days
Patchett, Ann
Well and truly embedded in the literary world, Ann Patchett can turn her hand to both fiction and non fiction, and in this collection of essays, she welcomes readers into her life with more than twenty pieces to ponder.
Reflecting on what matters most in life - including of course, family, friendship, marriage and writing - her trademark elegant and lucid writing is on display.
Transforming the personal into the universal, this book is an engrossing and stimulating read from a consummate storyteller.
