Mary Karr Been on the road since Nov. 3rd. We're #1 in tha Harvard Bookstore, Number 5 in San Francisco Chronicle and the Boston Globe, and #7 in Independent Booksellers. I am one weary mule, but I'm gobsmacked at the response and crowds in the stores. It wows me to hear people's stories. Thanks for sharing yours, and for shakin...g pom-poms in my direction. I really think God may love me more than other people. (joke) M

Hi Mary, "About that job offer. . . .?" I'd gladly run to Starbucks for your coffee and pick up the dry cleaning. . . (Ha Ha!) Seriously, if I can attend a reading/ book signing in New Mexico ~ and have you autograph each of your memoirs ~ that would be the ultimate gift.

Mary Karr From the New York Times review: "('Lit') lassos you, hogties your emotions and won’t let you go."

www.nytimes.com
Mary Karr’s searing new memoir of alcoholism and recovery is every bit as absorbing as her devastating 1995 memoir, “The Liars’ Club,” which secured her place on the literary map.

www.usatoday.com
Mary Karr's best-selling 1995 memoir, The Liars' Club, about her rough Texas childhood with alcoholic parents, kick-started a memoir revolution.

I LOVE that you visited the kids at Beaver. That says a lot about you, and being a teacher (not at Beaver), I thank you!
