A book that works both as a paean to art and beauty and a subtly sly comedy of manners. Janet Maslin, New York Times
A beautifully designed edition of number-one New York Times bestselling author Ann Patchetts prized classic, annotated and with an introduction by the author herself.
"A powerhouse story, a powerhouse voice, that wrestles with intragenerational fractures and complicated entanglements. At the center of the book is an obsessive kind of love, a love that gives but also takes, but a love that only forms from bonds forged in fire."-Weike Wang, award-winning author of Joan Is Okay and Chemistry
