A Wonderful Poet of Life
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I had the good fortune to see and hear Jane Shore read in Maryland. Her work pops with a warm strength for capturing the beauty of life. After the reading I picked up a copy of Happy Family and have been delighted by return visits to its pages. Shore is a masterful recorder of the delights of the everyday and the importance of the familial recognition of memory.
Shore's Honesty And Gift For Remembering Her Own Past Are What Make Her Great.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Jane Shore is a talented author, poet, writer of memoirs, but I think it's her ability to look clearly back into her own past that makes her books so engrossing. I like her work and I think hers is an overlooked voice among modern American writers.
