Home: American Writers Remember Rooms Of Their Own

The Story

Nineteen of America's finest writers shape a 'home' of essays, each contributing a different 'room' to a collection that gives readers a spirited and eclectic look at the ideals and realities of family, childhood, memory, and the simple notion of shelter. Contributors include Bailey White, Jane Smiley, Donald Katz, Lynda Barry, and Mona Simpson. Half of the editors' proceeds will be donated to organizations that assist the homeless. Reading tours.
