KINSEY AND ME: A Collection of Stories {Signed, numbered limited edition}

Descripción

Signed by author on title page in her uniquely beautiful calligraphic hand. In KINSEY AND ME, Sue Grafton has given us stories that reveal Kinsey's origins and Sue's past. KINSEY AND M has two parts: The nine Kinsey stories (1986-93), each a gem of detection; and the And Me stories, written in the decade after Grafton's mother died. Together, they show just how much of Kinsey is a distillation of her creator's past even as they reveal a child who, free of parental interventions, read everything and roamed everywhere. But the dark side of such freedom was that very parental distance. The same feisty voice and witty apercus readers fell in love with in A Is for Alibi permeate the Kinsey stories. Those in the And Me section trace a remarkable voyage, from anger to understanding, from pain to forgiveness. They take us into a troubled family, dysfunctional as most families are, each in their own way, but Grafton's telling is sensitive, delicate, and ultimately, loving. Enriching the way we see Kinsey and know Sue, these stories are deeply affecting. New, pristine, unread, first edition, first printing, quarter-bound in rich maroon cloth with gold spine titles in flawless matcfhing maroon slipcase, as issued without dust jacket. This is #17/300 of the copies numbered and signed by the author. {This is the true first edition of this title, published in 1991 by Bench Press, Santa Barbara, and is in immaculate condition.
