Heller, Erica

A thought-provoking, albeit uneven, compilation with varied insights into grief, mourning, reconciliation, and forgiveness. Recommended where literary anthologies are popular.

A rare combination of candor, humor, and compassion, this book is for all readers, especially of literary and family memoirs, and all fans of Heller. A fine combo with Tracy Daugherty's Just One Catch: A Biography of Joseph Heller.—William Gargan, Brooklyn Coll. Lib., CUNY
