Safekeeping Some True Stories from a Life
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Random House Inc
- Publish date: 04/01/2001
Description:
A beautifully crafted and inviting account of one woman's life, Safekeeping offers a sublimely different kind of autobiography. Setting aside a straightforward narrative in favor of brief passages of vivid prose, Abigail Thomas revisits the pivotal moments and the tiny incidents that have shaped her life: pregnancy at eighteen; single motherhood (of three!) by the age of twenty-six; the joys and frustrations of three marriages; and the death of her second husband. The stories made of these incidents are startling in their clarity and reassuring in their wisdom.
Expand description
This is a book in which silence speaks as eloquently as what is revealed. Openhearted and effortlessly funny, these brilliantly selected glimpses of the arc of a life are, in an age of excessive confession and recrimination, a welcome tonic.
